CWA Stands in Solidarity with Striking SAG-AFTRA and Writers Guild of America Members
Last week, hundreds of thousands of members of the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA), went on strike to demand a fair and equitable contract. SAG-AFTRA members, along with the nearly 12,000 members of the Writers Guild of America East (WGAE) and Writers Guild of America West (WGAW), who have been on strike for over 70 days, are courageously standing up against the greed of the Hollywood studios to secure a better future and stronger protections for workers in a rapidly changing industry.
CWA members participated in pickets in New York and California last week to show their solidarity with the striking workers. Our members, including those in the media, broadcast, and entertainment sectors, will continue to show our unwavering support and commitment to help build the power these brave workers need to achieve a strong victory.
