The National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation is reaching out to Boeing employees in Seattle, offering legal assistance amid the ongoing strike ordered by the International Association of Machinists (IAM) union officials. The strike, which began over a month ago, was extended on October 23.

A legal notice from the Foundation informs Boeing workers of their rights during the strike, emphasizing their ability to choose to work and support their families despite the union's order. The notice highlights why many workers seek free legal aid from the Foundation in similar situations.

"The situation presents serious concerns for employees who believe there is much to lose from a union-ordered strike," states the notice. It explains how workers can avoid fines and other disciplinary actions by continuing to work during a strike.

The notice advises Boeing employees wishing to return to work during the strike to resign from union membership beforehand. It provides guidance on submitting resignation letters and stresses that IAM officials cannot discipline non-union members.

"Union officials can (and often do) fine actual union members who work during a strike," warns the notice. It suggests resigning at least one day before returning to work as a precaution against such penalties.

Employees are also reminded of their right to stop paying union dues if there is no monopoly bargaining contract between IAM officials and Boeing management. The Foundation encourages those facing resistance while exercising these rights to seek its free legal aid.

Recently, Foundation attorneys assisted a Seattle Boeing worker in taking legal action against IAM officials for illegal money seizure.

"As this strike order continues with no clear end in sight, many Boeing workers may decide that going on strike is not the best course of action for them," said National Right to Work Foundation President Mark Mix. "Foundation attorneys stand ready to aid these workers in defending their right to continue working and providing for their families."
