A labor union representing writers of motion pictures, television, radio, and internet programming.
- The WGA and AMPTP have reached a tentative agreement. This was made possible by the enduring solidarity of WGA members and extraordinary support of our union siblings who stood with us for over 146 days. More details coming after contract language is finalized. #WGAStrike
- The WGA reached a tentative agreement with the AMPTP. Today, our Negotiating Committee, WGAW Board, and WGAE Council all voted unanimously to recommend the agreement. The strike ends at 12:01 am. Check out our deal at wgacontract2023.org/deal. #WGAStrong
- WGA members have authorized a strike by 97.85%. Writers are ready for a deal from the studios that allows writers to share in the success of the content they create and build a stable life. #WGAStrong

- Replying to @WGAWest
- Replying to @WGAWestThe decision was made following six weeks of negotiating with @netflix, @amazon, @Apple, @Disney, @wbd, @NBCUniversal, @paramountplus and @Sony under the umbrella of the AMPTP.
- To our members: The WGA and AMPTP met for bargaining on Friday and will meet again on Saturday. Thank you for the wonderful show of support on the picket lines today! It means so much to us as we continue to work toward a deal that writers deserve. #WGAStrike
- Replying to @WGAWestThough our Negotiating Committee began this process intent on making a fair deal, the studios’ responses have been wholly insufficient given the existential crisis writers are facing.
- We stand behind @sagaftra as they begin their strike. The last time our unions struck at the same time, both won landmark provisions on residuals and pension and health funds—this fight is no less transformational. #SAGAFTRAStrong #WGAStrong #1uA SAG-AFTRA TV/Theatrical/Streaming Strike has been ordered effective July 14, at 12:01 a.m. Additional details are forthcoming. The Strike Order can be found here: ow.ly/aqOK50PaX2W
- Today shareholders voiced their disapproval of @netflix’s outlandish exec pay totaling over $166 million for 2022. 1/6
- The studios need to respond to the crisis writers face. WGA members must demonstrate our willingness to fight for the contract writers need and deserve by supporting a strike authorization vote. 1/3 #1u
- Joint Statement from WGA and AMPTP: The WGA and AMPTP met for bargaining Saturday and will meet again on Sunday. #WGAStrike
