Alisa Priddle and Greg Gardner, Detroit Free Press 3:46 p.m. EDT October 22, 2015

The UAW will negotiate its next contract with General Motors.

The announcement was made on the heels of 40,000 members ratifying a new agreement with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles.

“The UAW announced today that it will pursue a contract for UAW-GM members in the next round of Big Three bargaining as negotiations continue at Ford," the union said in a statement today.

The company is also pleased to resume negotiations.

“We welcome the UAW turning their attention to GM. We will continue our discussions in good faith to obtain an agreement that meets the needs of GM employees and the business,” said GM in a statement.
