Machinists Launch on Boeing Rocket Safety

“The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) is charging the Boeing Co. with circumventing critical safety regulations in an attempt to meet launch deadlines for NASA’s plutonium powered New Horizons mission. The Machinists Union represents striking technicians at Boeing’s launch facility at Cape Canaveral, FL.”
