Striking workers at Boeing will vote next week on a new offer that could end a walkout that has lasted more than a month. Boeing and the union representing striking machinists said Saturday they have negotiated a new proposal that would raise pay 35% over four years and includes upfront bonuses of $7,000 per worker. The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers says it plans to hold a ratification vote next Wednesday. The strike has crippled most airplane production at Boeing, leading the company’s new CEO to announce layoffs and a plan to raise much-needed money by selling new stock or debt.
