In UNITY, We Stand.

During this unprecedented time in the entertainment industry, SAG-AFTRA stands in solidarity with our sister unions to fight for a fair contract.

Now is the time for unity!

To support the strength that comes with solidarity, MembershipFirst (M1) & Unite for Strength (UFS) have formed an alliance as a united front during this historic labor action. 

We have taken the unprecedented step to join our union parties so that we use our combined power and voices not against each other in a divisive election, but aligned against our common antagonist – the AMPTP!

We continue our steadfast commitment to bold support of our members and strategic leadership focused on our core values and commitment to:

  • Prioritize reinstating the health benefits of members who lost them

  • Create a new model for calculating revenue participation of streaming and other new technologies

  • Establish AI protections, guaranteeing performer ownership of our likeness and voices as our employers seek to exploit the use of Artificial Intelligence

  • Lead with transparency

  • Dramatically improve wage minimums and residual formulas

  • Raise per diem, mileage, wardrobe reimbursements, and relocation fees to account for inflation and higher costs

We stand in solidarity in the negotiating room – and we will remain in UNITY as we move forward, united in our goals.

Our united ticket is a combination of experienced savvy union leaders and new, diverse, fresh, eager future member leaders who are committed to a better future for us all.

We encourage you to vote for the entire UNITY2023 ticket.

This landmark TV/Theatrical contract negotiation will define our future and is our top priority. Because YOU are our top priority.

We hope you share our vision and ask for your vote so we can accomplish our critical  goals.
