Boeing to Transfer Jobs to Oklahoma City

Washington, D.C. – Congressman Tom Cole (OK-04) released the following statement after Boeing announced the planned transfer of approximately 900 engineering and defense-related jobs to its Oklahoma City facility near Tinker Air Force Base. These jobs are related to the company’s restructuring of its Boeing Defense, Space & Security Unit and will include work on the KC-46A Tanker.  

“I am pleased that Boeing recognizes the value and benefit of bringing jobs to Oklahoma,” said Cole. “The transfer of these jobs speaks strongly to our quality workforce and business environment, but it is also a credit to the state’s leadership capability and potential in the defense industry.”
