Why Vote #FairWageOnCouncil?
The #FairWage movement is a grassroots group of rank and file members and is already transforming our union because we are standing together, acknowledging our power, and using our collective voice to demand change.
We need a Council full of progressive and positive thinkers — one that sees how strong Actors’ Equity Association could be, one that will do the work and research necessary to make informed decisions, one that will fortify and expand the rights of members all over the nation, and one that will devote themselves every day to fair wages, inclusion, participation, and engagement.
The 19 current #FairWageOnCouncil members have put forth bold, innovative policy initiatives that will be instrumental in rebuilding and nurturing live theatre in America. Electing our 2020 candidates will allow them to continue and expand on that work.
Together, let’s make Actors’ Equity Association the strongest it’s ever been!
Thank you for your continued support,
#FairWageOnCouncil
