Washington Roundtable Responds to Boeing Announcement Regarding Second 787 Line

Washington Roundtable today made the following statement in response to Boeing’s
Announcement Regarding the Second 787 Line:

“Washington state faces an important challenge. We need to work even harder to
make the changes necessary to make our state more competitive, or we will lose
more family wage jobs in today`s highly competitive global economy.

We know what the most pressing problems are when it comes to improving our
state`s economic climate. All of us – government, business and labor – must join
together to retool our economy and create more good jobs. We are committed to
renewing our efforts to make Washington attractive to employers.”

Steve Mullin, President, Washington Roundtable
