IWJ Kansas congratulates International Aerospace and Machinists Workers, Local 639 and the management of Bombardier Learjet on the settlement of the recent strike. The new contract represents a victory for all parties directly involved and for the city of Wichita. We all benefit from this agreement.
At our Annual Meeting on January 12, 2012, Interfaith Worker Justice Kansas will honor the members of Local 639 for the standing up for workers' rights.The meeting will be held on the campus of Newman University. The public is invited. We will gather at 8:30 a.m.
I want to take this opportunity to thank members of the following organizations for walking in solidarity with members of Local 639 on Sunday afternoons: IAM Local Lodge 774, Sunflower Community Action, Interfaith Worker Justice Kansas, Pine Valley Christian Church, and individuals.
Our hope for the future and for a more humane economy lies in standing together.
