We cannot budge on outsourcing of our work, we cannot ever agree with an employer that's willing to take our work and give it to others. What they're looking for is a buyout with this union and our work force and allow for others to do our work. Totally unacceptable we will not move in that direction.

We are pleased to have reached an agreement to provide ILWU members with a package that rewards the hard work our membership puts forward every day at West Coast ports.
