GM and UAW Reach 37 Hour Bargain Accord
After a grueling 37 hour session the United Auto Workers and General Motors reached a 30 month agreement preserving thousands of jobs and potentially reducing car prices in exchange for about 3 billion in concessions. The pact mirrors terms agreed with Ford in February and features a wage freeze, deferral of cost of living adjustments, and enhanced job protections against outsourcing. The deal moves to the UAW International Executive Council for endorsement and then to GM Council for ratification, with a tentative April 10 deadline and a potential final vote by roughly 490,000 current and laid off GM hourly workers.
