Yes, a small group (199) at the Vought plant decertified IAM. I'm sure Boeing will try and keep the new facility non-union for a while but my guess is that the IAM will be organizing as thousands are hired. Labor costs must have been a factor but I'm hearing that the IAM's refusal to add a no-strike clause and the tax incentives were the big factors.
