Boeing Workers Prepare to Vote on New Contract Offer Amid Ongoing Strike
Boeing has reached a sweetened contract offer with striking workers amidst an ongoing seven-week strike that has garnered attention from business leaders and government officials. This new proposal, which includes a significant 38% pay raise, has received endorsement from the union leadership and will be put to a vote among machinists. As pressure mounts to resolve the strike, discussions about the reinstatement of traditional pension plans and other worker demands continue, with the White House encouraging both parties to reach a deal. The vote, scheduled for Monday, will ultimately determine the next steps for the striking workforce and the future of negotiations.
