Dear Member,
Please be advised that the upcoming Society of Voice Arts and Sciences 10th Annual Voice Arts Awards Gala on December 10, 2023 at the Beverly Hills Hilton in Beverly Hills, CA is being held at a hotel currently on the UNITE HERE Local 11 boycott list. This means that at any moment, workers covered by the UNITE HERE Local 11 collective bargaining agreement could go on strike and put up picket lines in front of this hotel.
UNITE HERE stood with SAG-AFTRA during our fight for a fair contract and we urge you to stand by them by not attending this event if you do not have to.
If you are contractually obligated to attend this event, you should. Please note, however, that you may be in a position of having to cross a picket line to do so.
As union members in solidarity with our siblings across the labor movement, we advise all SAG-AFTRA members to look at FairHotel.org to check the status of any hotel when attending events or booking stays.
Thank you.
