"GM and UAW Finally Reach Tentative Agreement, Ending Lengthy Strike"

General Motors (GM) and the United Auto Workers (UAW) have reached a tentative agreement after weeks of contract negotiations. The deal, which includes wage increases and the reinstatement of cost-of-living adjustments, matches the financial terms of the agreement reached with Ford Motor Co. and Stellantis. The main issue that was holding up the deal was how to include GM's joint-venture battery plants in the master labor contract between GM and UAW. The agreement will allow the joint-venture workforce to vote on unionizing future plants and decide if they want their own contract or to be part of the master contract. A UAW National GM council vote is expected later this week.
