Huntsville is among the finalists for the coveted facility, along with Charleston, S.C., Long Beach, Calif., Philadelphia and St. Louis. The letter points out Boeing’s existing footprint in north Alabama and also touts the state’s “high-tech aerospace expertise, low taxation and cost-of-living, rational regulatory regime, right-to-work laws, low utility rates, and excellent infrastructure.” All of Alabama’s congressional delegation signed the letter, including Sens.
