Rep. Rick Larsen, WA-02, today hailed Boeing's announcement that it would move work on the KC-46 Air Force tanker from its facilities in Kansas to Northwest Washington.

"This is great news to start the New Year," Larsen said. "This decision to further invest in the women and men of Boeing's Northwest Washington facilities is another reason we all worked so hard to land the tanker. This news means more good manufacturing jobs are coming to Northwest Washington and our nation will receive an outstanding tanker that will better serve the needs of our Air Force."
