Blumenthal Statement on Machinists' Tentative Agreement with Pratt & Whitney

[Hartford, CT] – U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal released a statement today on the tentative agreement reached by the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) and Pratt & Whitney.
“This tentative agreement is a solid step forward for Pratt’s highly skilled machinists, and I hope for a fair settlement soon. These dedicated workers deserve decent compensation, pensions, and job security as they produce the best aircraft engines on the planet, vital to assuring that America has the strongest air force in the world.
