Informational Meetings Announced
Your SAG-AFTRA National Board has overwhelmingly approved the gains negotiated for the 2018 Network Television Code and recommends you VOTE YES on this referendum. This contract generates more than $200 million a year in member earnings and covers programming in almost all television day parts as well as programming produced for digital media.
All eligible members were mailed a postcard on July 26 with instructions and a PIN number on how to vote online at ivsballot.com/netcode or how to request a paper ballot. If necessary, you can retrieve your PIN at the voting website by clicking “Find My PIN.” The deadline for ballots to be received, whether submitted online or by mail, is Thursday, Aug. 16, 2018 at 5 p.m. PDT.

Eligible members are invited to an informational webinar meeting on the proposed Network Television Code and the gains secured in this contract. This meeting will provide members the opportunity to hear a presentation followed by a group discussion.
