(AP) – Boeing is making what it calls a “best and final offer” to striking union machinists, but the union says it won’t vote by Boeing’s deadline. The proposed contract put out on Monday includes bigger raises and larger bonuses than the offer union members overwhelmingly rejected this month. But the machinists’ union says the offer doesn’t go far enough. The union says it played no role in coming up with the new proposal, and there’s not enough time to study the proposal and vote by Boeing’s Friday night deadline. About 33,000 Boeing workers began their strike more than a week ago.
