A Boeing Machinist Union member enters the IAM District 751 Union Hall to vote on the latest contract presented by the airline giant after weeks of striking, in Seattle, Washington October 23, 2024. Boeing reported a whopping $6.2 billion quarterly loss Wednesday as a nearly six-week labor strike weighed on its commercial plane division and costly problems dragged down its defense and space business. The embattled aviation giant, which has been under scrutiny from regulators following safety problems, will learn later in the day if Seattle-area employees will accept the company's latest proposal, ending the bruising work stoppage.
