Pressure is mounting as Boeing machinists vote on the company's latest contract offer that received a unanimous endorsement from union leaders.

FILE - Boeing Machinists union members Alex Garcia, right, Hossein Hosseini, center, and Molly Rimko picket outside of a Boeing Factory, September 13, 2024 in Renton, Washington. The union voted overwhelmingly to reject the airplane maker's contract offer and strike.

However, Boeing refused to meet strikers’ demand to restore a company pension plan that was frozen nearly a decade ago. “While the past few months have been difficult for all of us, we are all part of the same team,” Ortberg said. “We will only move forward by listening and working together. There is much work ahead to return to the excellence that made Boeing an iconic company.”

“We were threatened by a company that was crippled, dying, bleeding on the ground, and us as one of the biggest unions in the country couldn't even extract two-thirds of our demands from them. This is humiliating," Bolaño said.
