OLYMPIA, Wash. (Metro) -- A tentative agreement is reached between negotiators for Governor Christine Gregoire and the Washington Federation of State Employees on a new two-year contract.
The deal calls for reversing three-percent pay cuts made during the past two years.
It would also include a one-percent pay raise in the second year if state revenues exceed projections.
Union members will decide whether to accept the new contract when they vote online September 28.
