Boeing announcement slashes at Virginia administration of Abigail Spanberger
By Bob Unruh
A new, and far-left, governor moved into the governor’s office in Virginia, and one of the first major economic announcements made was that Boeing is leaving the state.
It’s a huge blow to the economic agenda of Abigail Spanberger, whose goals appear to be expanding abortion, expanding transgender activism, pushing DEI ideologies and cutting down on the authority of the federal government, through its Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, to enforce federal law.
The Daily Caller News Foundation said only a month into Spanberger’s term, her state is losing operations of one of the nation’s largest defense contractors, Boeing.
The company has confirmed it is relocating its Defense, Space & Security headquarters to St. Louis, where it was based from 1997 to 2017.
It had moved to Arlington while Glenn Youngkin, the Republican predecessor to Spanberger, was in office.
U.S. War Secretary Pete Hegseth joined Republican Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe and Sen. Eric Schmitt at Boeing’s north St. Louis plant Wednesday, where he praised the relocation and highlighted the decision to move resources “to the heartland of America,” the report said.
