If we want New York City to continue to be the theater capital of the world, workers need dignity and respect. In Times Square today, I stood with the actors, stage managers and musicians of @actorsequity.bsky.social as they begin bargaining to say: America’s unions are with you!

Workers across the country are rising up and saying ENOUGH to corporate greed. We won’t settle for less than what we’ve earned! Fair pay, safe conditions, and respect for ALL workers.

Stripping collective bargaining and union rights from workers across the federal government is the very definition of union busting — and a blatant attempt to silence us. We will fight this outrageous attack on our members with every fiber of our collective being.

This is an attack on union workers, union contracts, and the freedom for every single person to have a union on the job and the freedom to speak out. Read our statement from Executive Director Al Vincent, Jr. - actorsequity.org/news/PR/EOAg...

New York — Actors’ Equity Association, the national union representing more than 51,000 professional performers and stage managers working in live theatre, released the following statement from Executive Director Al Vincent, Jr. in response to the executive order “Exclusions from the Federal Labor-Management Relations Program,” issued last night by President Trump:

“Donald Trump has now taken direct aim at working people by attacking the collective bargaining rights of our federal workforce in what’s being called the largest union-busting act of our lifetime, if not in history.

The workers targeted by this executive order are not only the indispensable pulse that keeps our country running, they are our friends, neighbors and colleagues. They’ve been on the front line of protecting our democracy, and their lawsuits against this administration have placed them in the crosshairs of political retribution."
