Day 9 - Strike Update
September 21, 2024
Subject: Community Resources for IAM Striking Workers Sessions
Nine years ago at Boeing's Family Day - Holding the Line in Renton today!
Choosing to go on strike is never an easy decision, but it is always a brave one.
We invite all IAM 751 striking workers to join us on Zoom every Tuesday and Thursday for the next three weeks. These sessions will connect you with community leaders who will provide valuable information on resources available to you and your family during this challenging time.
Hosted by IAM Health and Benefits Representative Joe Ruth, these sessions focus on the support services available, not strike details, contract negotiations, or picket duty. This is your chance to learn where to turn for assistance.

Being on strike is never easy, so please keep an eye out for those in our Union family who may need support.
Our fight is just - don't let anyone or the media shake your confidence. The message for today and every day is One Day Longer, One Day Stronger!
In Unity,
Your Union Negotiating Committee

Day 8 - Strike Update
September 20, 2024
Holding the line in Seattle!
We want to thank each and every one of you who has been out on the picket lines. Your solidarity and strength are not only visible but are making an impact both here in Puget Sound and across the nation.
Since mediated talks broke off on Wednesday, no additional discussions have been scheduled. Utilizing the membership survey data over the last few days has reinforced our effort to stand firm on increased General Wage Increases, reestablishing an annual bonus, and pushing for the Defined Benefit Pension. We remain ready to return to the table, whether through direct talks with the company or via the federal mediator. Until then, our focus is on reinforcing the picket lines, supporting each other, and engaging in constructive discussions as we stand united.
This morning, IAM 751 President Jon Holden was out on the picket lines in Seattle, having candid conversations with members about the need for a stronger contract offer. Confidence remains high, and members are prepared to do whatever it takes to win this fight. Many of you have asked when talks will resume and when we might see a new offer. While we don't have those answers yet, it's crucial that we stay the course and continue supporting one another.
Look out for your Union brothers and sisters who might need some assistance and direct them to the Union Hall for support.
Together, we will prevail and secure the contract you deserve. We are on the right side of history in this fight.
In Unity,
Your Union Negotiating Committee
Picket Reminders:
*For questions about insurance and COBRA, please visit https://t.co/GqPYGh9G0e.
*If you didn't get your picket card in the mail, head to the closest Strike HQ, and they will get you to a picket line. Family and friends are always welcome to picket with our members.
*Please continue to send your photos to [email protected].
Voting has concluded and the count begins!
Our 32,000 @IAM751 and W24 members are making their voices heard.
Boeing workers will fix Boeing because we ARE Boeing.

I find it ironic that on the one hand society actively ostracizes neurodivergent people for behaving differently, while at the same time every single TV show ever created has used "unusual" behavior to create characters that people would be interested in watching.
Israel told a million Palestinian civilians to seek refuge in Rafah, the designated ‘safe place’.
Israel is now intensely bombing Rafah through air, land and sea, in the middle of the night.
This is a genocide.
It's REALLY unusual for the NWS to issue a blizzard warning here. But they have, so PLEASE take this seriously. Our crews will be out, but we lack the ability to stop heavy snow and high winds. It's going to be REALLY challenging in the passes.
We thought we had grown out of the Elf on the Shelf lifestyle…. And then kiddo found where we hid the elf and now I guess we’re back in the game. God help us all. #christmas#parenthood#elfontheshelf#ohgodwhy
I am a lurker on almost all social media sites these days because life is busy. But you can find me on Instagram, Threads under ceeleeolsonwrites and on bluesky under ceeleeolson
"Former President Carter and wife Mrs. Rosalynn Carter quickly kissed on a Habitat for Humanity build site when they thought no one noticed ..."
Married for 77 years.
May they be surrounded by love at this time.
I think Felicia Wennberg is an amazing woman and I hope you guys take some time to read what she has to say and reflect on how some of the things you say publicly make actual people feel
