F rom the original 737-100, to the extended range, and now the MAX family, Boeing’s 737 product line offers passengers and airlines more flexibility and a better flying experience. The 737’s range and capacity options provide more direct routes for passengers traveling home for the holidays, joining friends for a long weekend, or attending a sales conference out of town. Boeing employees in the Pacific North- west are proud to be a part of this lega- cy, connecting communities and people around the world in new and exciting ways. But in order to keep innovating, setting records, and investing in the communities where our employees live and work, the 737 line - and all of American aerospace - must keep win- ning orders amidst fierce international competition. Aerospace is a vibrant, valuable and high-tech industry, and foreign competitors want to capture as much as they can from the U.S. aero- space industry and the jobs it supports. They are even partnering with their gov- ernments, who are illegally subsidizing them, to accomplish that goal. When companies try to undermine the international agreements that maintain a level playing field and ensure fair com- petition, American jobs and the legacy of American aerospace are threatened. Watch U.S. Fly is committed to pro- tecting that legacy. Watch U.S. Fly is a community of advocates fighting for free and fair trade and the American worker. Last year, advocates made their voices heard in support of a critical job-generating agency, the U.S. Ex- port-Import Bank, and by standing up for American workers threatened by foreign companies that break interna- tional rules. Watch U.S. Fly advocates, many based here in the Pacific North- west, connect with policymakers to share their stories and explain how policies and conversations in Wash- ington, D.C. directly impact them. Our advocates speak out when U.S. aerospace leadership and American jobs are at stake. The 737 program alone now drives an estimated $22 billion in annual economic impact and supports 300,000 American jobs. Join Watch U.S. Fly today to help us protect not just the 737 line and the people who supply that program, but hundreds of thousands of additional American jobs, American innovation and America’s aerospace legacy.
