The news was shared on the local chapters Facebook page Saturday evening.

Although its unknown what the agreement includes, people with knowledge of the negotiations say that this tentative agreement mirrors a template set earlier this week by Ford.

This big step means about 100 auto workers in Bay View that have been on strike since September 22nd do not have to take to the picket line on Monday.

According to Local UAW 75 President, Joseph Neu, he is still waiting to hear the exact details of this preliminary agreement and he emphasizes that nothing is final yet.
