Mayor Birney, Avid Union Supporter

Statement from Mayor Angela Birney on the Boeing Strike:

In Redmond, Boeing employees and suppliers have been impacted by the machinist union’s strike, now in its eighth week. I support the work of the union and am hopeful that the upcoming vote on Monday brings an end to this strike. Companies, employees, and the entire Puget Sound all benefit when Boeing airplanes are being built.
