Just wanted to thank everyone for their support! It’s been an eye-opening experience getting to talk with union members all over the country. I’ve attached a screenshot of a message from one union member who has been in IA for 18 years, lived in Los Angeles for over 14 years and has still not been able to get into Local 44. This shouldn’t be the case, especially not for a preexisting union member. This isn’t solidarity, and it’s in direct opposition of IATSE’s values. If you could share this petition with your friends, it would be greatly appreciated!

In solidarity, 

-Ryan Bennett, Local 491 Set Dresser
