General Motors Co and the United Auto Workers union have reached a tentative deal for a new four-year labor deal, moving the sides closer to ending the month-long strike that had drawn the attention of President Donald Trump and Democratic candidates in the 2020 presidential election.
The deal is subject to approval by the union’s national GM council during its meeting on Oct. 16 and then must still be ratified by the wider membership, the UAW said in a statement. The strike continues at least until Thursday’s meeting.
