Dockworker Strike Ends, Flow Of Import Cars and Parts Resume

A historic United States port strike has been suspended and a tentative agreement was reached "on wages," according to the International Longshoremen's Association and the U.S. Maritime Alliance.

 

"Effective immediately, all current job actions will cease and all work covered by the Master Contract will resume," the ILA and USMX said in a joint statement Thursday evening.

 

The tentative agreement would increase workers' wages by 62% over the life of the 6-year contract, sources familiar confirm to ABC News.
