sites in 24 states, boeing tweaked its offer to the union. the local district 751 resisted. if we bring an offer every time boeing comes with a list of demands what, good is it to have a contract in place. it lends legitimacy that any time they come with commands, we have to bring it to a vote. reporter: jay inslee issued a statement saying i believe the machinists should have the opportunity to exercise that right. we are in a perilous point to bring the 777 x to washington state. a growing number of members agreed, including this family whose son and son-in-law both work for broeg and don t think the company is bluffing about building the plane elsewhere? i don t think that would be devastating not only for my family but for the community. reporter: the head office of the association of machinist exercises power and forced the seattle locals today to hold a vote.
machinists in washington after they ve rejected the contract offer. what s left for the union to do? well, hopefully the governor and some others can weigh in on boeing. and as you and i were just discussing that boeing comes to understand that they re not going to be able to replace that work force and all those years of experience that they have. and ultimately, a race to the bottom isn t going to do boeing any favors as well. you know, the companies that buy their planes, buy them because they fly very well, not because they re necessarily cheap. and that s what you want. and you don t want, necessarily, cheap worker. you want workers who are highly skilled, who have years of experience and who want a great plane together, as they have over the last couple of decades for boeing, right there in the state of washington. scott paul, alliance for american manufacturing. good to have you with us tonight. thanks so much for joining us. i d like to know what congress thinks of these bi
