Boeing workers to vote next week on a new proposal that could end strike
CBSN
Boeing and the union representing striking machinists have negotiated a new contract proposal that would provide bigger pay raises and bonuses in a bid to end a costly walkout that has crippled production of airplanes for more than a month.
The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers said early Saturday that it plans to hold a ratification vote on Wednesday.
The union said the deal would increase pay by 35% over four years, up from 30% that was offered last month. It also boosts upfront bonuses to $7,000 per worker instead of $6,000.
It is a typical election year scene: A Congressional candidate working the crowd at a college football game. But Sarah McBride's simple act of shaking hands at Delaware State University could lead to a turning point in American history. If elected, she would become the first trans member of the U.S. House of Representatives.
