>United Auto Workers Local 766 members at Lockheed Martin walked out on strike Thursday morning, according to the union.
Union workers gathered outside the Lockheed Martin Waterton Campus on Thursday to rally.
The union said unfair labor practices and refusal to present a fair economic proposal were reasons for the strike. Lockheed Martin said it values its employees and looks forward to reaching a fair labor agreement.
"The strike begins during a time of record taxpayer-funded profits for the U.S. government’s largest defense contractor", the union said in a release. "Lockheed Martin made $24 billion in profit and paid its CEO $66 million over the last three years. Profits were up the first quarter of 2025, with Lockheed taking in another $1.7 billion."
