“Said Duncan Crabtree-Ireland, the guild’s national executive director and chief negotiator: “Strike authorization sends an important message during the negotiations process. A ‘yes’ vote gives the National Board the power to call a strike if the AMPTP does not negotiate fairly in our upcoming bargaining. This will be a seminal negotiation that will determine the future of what it means to be a working performer. We must be ready to fight to secure a meaningful deal for our members.””
Director’s Guild also will have negotiations and are facing very similar issues as actors and writers. We could be looking at a triple strike.
