1Opinion of the Court
SHEA, District Court Judge:
Appellant Pacific Maritime Association (“PMA”) appeals the district court’s dismissal of its suit against Appellee Local 68. The appeal presents an issue of first impression in this Circuit: whether Local 68, as a public sector union, is subject to liability for “secondary boycott” activity under § 303 of the Labor Management Relations Act of 19472 (“LMRA”), 29 U.S.C. § 187. The district court held 29 U.S.C. § 187 does not apply to public sector labor organizations and dismissed the suit for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. We affirm.
