GE Aerospace Workers Kick Off Bargaining

IUE-CWA President Carl Kennebrew (front row, right), along with the IUE-CWA GE Aerospace bargaining committee, kicked off bargaining with GE Aerospace on Monday. Kennebrew, in his opening statement, said, "My father worked at GE, so I know what a good union retirement can look like. Our members and retirees no longer have that peace of mind." Along with IUE-CWA, the International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers has two representatives bargaining, as the contract will also apply to them. Director of Automotive and Aerospace Industries for global union federation IndustriALL, Georg Leutert, also participated in the opening. IndustriALL members represent workers in the GE supply chain around the world.
