The DGA applauds the successful conclusion of the AFTRA/AMPTP negotiations. This deal demonstrates that no matter how challenging the issues, when both sides are determined to take a positive approach to problem-solving, concrete advances in jurisdiction, wages and working conditions can be made. We congratulate the strong leadership of Roberta Reardon, Kim Roberts Hedgpeth and the entire AFTRA Negotiating Committee on their successful efforts to improve and preserve the creative and economic rights of AFTRA members.
