'The eyes of the world and particularly the eyes of labor are upon us.' Fran Drescher remarks on SAG-AFTRA vote to strike: 'What happens here is important, because what's happening to us is happening across all fields of labor.'
July 13, 2023, 3:39 PMSAG-AFTRA President and actress Fran Drescher listens as National Executive Director and Chief Negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland speaks during a press conference at the labor union's headquarters in Los Angeles, July 13, 2023, as they announce a strike.
Crabtree-Ireland said the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers "remains unwilling to offer a fair deal," and so the SAG-AFTRA board of directors decided to issue the strike order against studios and streamers. "Despite our team's efforts the AMPTP has remained steadfast in its commitment to devaluing the work of our members," Crabtree-Ireland said of the the weeks of negotiations.
Fran Drescher, president of SAG-AFTRA, said the "the eyes of the world and particularly the eyes of labor are upon us." "What happens here is important because what's happening to us is what's happening across all fields of labor by means of when employers make Wall Street and greed their priority and they forget about the essential contributors that make the machine run," Drescher said.
