UAW/FCA Reach New Agreement Avoiding Strike
Written by Sandy Williams
The UAW and FCA have reached a new tentative agreement, avoiding a strike deadline by minutes. The UAW notified members at 11:41 pm Wednesday evening, saying “significant gains” were secured in the new agreement.
“We heard from our members, and went back to FCA to strengthen their contract,” said UAW President Dennis Williams. “We’ve reached a proposed Tentative Agreement that I believe addresses our members’ principal concerns about their jobs and their futures. We have made real gains and I look forward to a full discussion of the terms with our membership.”
