In the labor movement, growth equals strength, and D. Taylor's dedication to expanding @unitehere's ranks and tireless advocacy on behalf of working people has undoubtedly strengthened the movement. 1/4.

It was an honor to join IATSE Local 600 and ICG Publicists at the 61st Annual ICG Publicist Awards as they presented the Television Showperson of the Year Award to the multitalented @SirPatStew. Very well deserved!

Thanks to the courage of these workers and others, we stand at the cusp of a new era in VFX. An era where every worker’s contribution and value are recognized, where they can win the same rights and protections their @IATSE co-workers already have.
🚨 BREAKING: 'Avatar' VFX Artists Vote to Unionize with IATSE By Overwhelming 75% Support. The ‘Avatar’ VFX artists have become the first ‘vendor-side’ @vfxunion in the United States to win union representation through an official National Labor Relations Board election.

In this country, when you work, you get paid. Anything less is theft.
🚨 BREAKING: IATSE local unions have filed a civil lawsuit against “That’s Amore Movie, LLC” . Because of the failed leadership of Producer/Director Nick Vallelonga, union workers are owed more than $570,000 + thousands in benefit contributions. 1/3

IATSE proudly stands behind Rep. Schiff's Empowering Striking Workers Act, advocating for future workers who may find themselves in the challenging position of going on strike. Workers exercising their rights in order to achieve a fair contract shouldn't be forced into debt. 1/2.
BREAKING: Just introduced a bill with @RepAOC & @DonaldNorcross to grant striking workers unemployment insurance. Strikes drive change not just for those on strike, but for all workers. No one should have to choose between fighting for progress or feeding their families.

The only reason a shutdown is a possibility is because a small group of right-wing hardliners in the House of Representatives is willing to inflict collateral damage on working people for political posturing. My statement condemning a possible US Federal #GovernmentShutdown:

Entertainment workers everywhere are sticking up for each other’s rights, that’s what our movement is all about. I congratulate these workers on taking this important step and using their collective voice. #VFXUnion.

We are witnessing an unprecedented wave of solidarity that’s breaking down old barriers in the industry and proving we’re all in this fight together. That doesn’t happen in a vacuum.
BREAKING: Visual Effects (VFX) crews at Marvel Studios have filed for a unionization election with the National Labor Relations Board. This signals a major shift in the VFX industry, which has been largely non-union since the 70s. VFX WORKERS ASSEMBLE!!
