1. UAW reaches tentative deal with Ford to end strike
The United Auto Workers reached a tentative deal with Ford on Wednesday night to end the union's targeted six-week strike against the automaker, although it was still negotiating with General Motors and Chrysler-owner Stellantis. The agreement, which must still be ratified by union members, includes a 25% wage hike over the course of a four-year contract that will bring the top pay for assembly workers to $40 an hour. Ford, Stellantis and General Motors — Detroit's Big Three automakers — previously offered 23%. The agreement was expected to increase the odds of ending the UAW's unprecedented simultaneous partial strikes at all three automakers. The Wall Street Journal, The Associated Press
