Take Action: Tell PBS-WNET THIRTEEN to Stop Union-Busting & Agree to a Fair Deal for WGAE Members!

The Writers Guild of America East, AFL-CIO, includes workers at WNET THIRTEEN, who are currently fighting for a fair contract that protects their union and provides for fair wages and paid time off, but so far, the company has resisted these proposals.

To make matters worse, THIRTEEN's management is trying to eviscerate their staff's union by demanding the power to assign union members’ work to non-union employees, without any meaningful limits.

THIRTEEN is an iconic Public Media station not only in New York City but across the country, with programming that viewers like you have cherished for decades. WGAE members have been essential to that success and they need your help so they can win the fair contract they deserve. Please take a minute to send a letter in support of WGAE members at THIRTEEN by urging management to withdraw their union-busting proposals and return to the bargaining table ready to agree to a fair contract.
