You have expressed your collective strength, solidarity, and the demand for meaningful change in overwhelming numbers.
The WGAs last strike, launched in 2007, lasted 100 days.
That authorization vote was approved by 90% of voters.

Its inevitable ratification should come as no surprise to anyone.
Our goal is, and continues to be, to reach a fair and reasonable agreement.
