History of this Union

In the early 1950’s the workers at Hughes Aircraft  wanted to unionize. There were several Unions that wanted to represent the workers.  The workers settled on The International Association of Machinist (IAM) in 1952. It is rumored that Howard Hughes suggested the IAM because of it’s professional reputation. 

The IAM and Hughes signed their first agreement in 1953.  Early agreements were set for a one year duration in those days.

The IAM has been representing the Aerospace workers in Tucson for 70 years!

From Hughes through to Raytheon Technologies we have remained the consistent body of this plantsite.

As a Union, we have had to withhold our labor to get fair contracts a few times:

Some one week strikes in the 60’s

Strikes in 1974 and 1978

The latest strike was in 2006 for 74 days
