Endorsements – In Process

The WGAW Political Action Committee has made the following endorsements of candidates who support the Guild’s public policy priorities. All candidates seeking support from the PAC are either evaluated based on their record in Congress or complete a questionnaire reviewed by the PAC Board. These are candidates who, like us, are concerned with fighting media consolidation, strengthening antitrust enforcement, regulating AI, advocating for state and federal tax incentives for film and TV production, protecting our health and pension plans, and expanding collective bargaining rights. 

You can help amplify the voice of writers in Washington, Sacramento and Los Angeles by giving to the WGAW PAC today. Learn more about the work of the WGAW PAC.
