IAM Local 774 Members at Textron Aviation Vote to Reject Contract, Strike for Fairness

Nearly 5,000 members of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) Local 774 (District 70) at Textron Aviation in Wichita, Kan., have overwhelmingly rejected the company’s offer. The current agreement expires just after midnight, Monday morning, Sept. 23.

As a united front, IAM Local 774 members are pursuing improved pay rates, healthcare, and job security after having voiced their concerns regarding compensation and benefits, highlighting the pressing need for enhancements to ensure the well-being and livelihoods of all workers.

The IAM looks forward to returning to the table with Textron Aviation leadership to work on an equitable agreement for both parties.
