Over 3,200 Boeing workers in St. Louis rejected a proposed contract, including a 20% wage increase over four years, leading to an expected strike on August 4th. The International Machinists and Aerospace Workers union cited the contract as failing to meet worker priorities. Boeing called the offer its richest ever, while the union highlighted the need for a contract respecting their work and future security. The strike impacts production of U.S. fighter jets at three St. Louis plants.
