this agreement is causing a great deal of distaste in VA spaces this week, perhaps best exemplified by this tweet which asserts that the deal was not sent to membership. as far as i can tell through the grapevine a lot of VAs concur that this was foist upon them suddenly and they were given no chance to vote on it or similar, but it’s hard to say without any more concrete details than social media
There’s… no details at all other than “it’s happening”?
Why even announce this with no details, Knowing it’s gonna piss people off? What were sag-aftra and Replica hoping for here?
well, this is a press release strictly speaking (and unions tend to delay public release of specific details of such deals anyways–although, if the allegations are correct i have no idea why they’d do this in this case).
