Buffenbarger Speaks Out On Lou Dobbs

“How we could turn over the crown jewel of support for our nation’s Air Force to foreign manufacturers is beyond me,” said Buffenbarger.

“We’re going to take this on tooth and nail and get this decision overturned.
We’re going to see that America gets what it deserves in the form of economic justice and fairness for American workers.”

Boeing’s KC-767 tanker would be built with over 85 percent domestic U.S. content and would support more than 44,000 U.S. jobs and 300 contractors in over forty states.
The tanker competition was mandated in 2003, allowing a heavily subsidized European manufacturer, EADS, to bid against Boeing, a U.S. firm that received no subsidies.
