(ABC 6 News) — Boeing machinists on strike will vote on a new deal on Wednesday to potentially end the walkout that is now in its second month.

The two sides negotiated a deal that could bring them 35% raises over four years. That is up from the 30% the company offered last month.

However, this deal still wouldn’t bring back their pension plan, which was a key demand for workers, but it would increase contributions to their 401k plan.
