Boeing union workers who assemble fighter jets strike in two states following rejection of contract offering 20% general wage increase and $5,000 bonus.

After rejecting the company's second proposed contract, union members in the St. Louis area began striking Monday. They said they will not stop until they receive a fair deal.

About 3,200 union members at Boeing facilities in Missouri and Illinois went on strike at midnight on Monday after rejecting an offer from the company, the union said.
