John,

In a moment, I’m going to ask you to make a donation to support the
[ [link removed] ]Entertainment Community Fund — an incredible nonprofit helping members
of the entertainment industry currently on strike.

But first, let me tell you why.

As you may know by now, an overwhelming 97% of members of the SAG-AFTRA
community voted to go on strike for better pay, better working conditions,
and better protections.

This is the first time both SAG-AFTRA and the Writers Guild of America
members have been on strike together since 1960.

Just last week, I marched again with members of the entertainment industry
on the picket line — where I heard their concerns firsthand.

The solidarity on the SAG-AFTRA and WGA picket lines during their strikes
has been incredible.

The magic we see in a movie theater or on our TV isn’t by accident. It’s
thanks to the incredible writers, stunt performers, voiceover and
broadcast journalists, and actors putting in the work to make that magic
happen.

These are folks that are just trying to put bread on the table, keep a
roof over their head, provide for their families, and work enough so that
they can qualify for health insurance. In fact, more than 80 percent of
SAG-AFTRA workers don’t work enough to qualify for health insurance.

This might surprise you, but even some of the talking heads on Fox News
said they agreed with me, and that “there are a lot of people, who are
just like normal working-class people, who are working and need to have
some stuff renegotiated.”

[ [link removed] ]Will you make a charitable donation right now to support the
Entertainment Community Fund? Your donations will go toward helping
provide a safety net for those most in need during this work stoppage —
including helping pay for medical care, housing, and grocery bills.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your
donation to the Entertainment Community Fund will go through immediately:

[ [link removed] ]EXPRESS DONATE $3

[ [link removed] ]EXPRESS DONATE $10

[ [link removed] ]EXPRESS DONATE $25

[ [link removed] ]EXPRESS DONATE $50

[ [link removed] ]EXPRESS DONATE $100

[ [link removed] ]ANOTHER AMOUNT

Workers in the entertainment industry are taking on the same fight as
workers all across the country — for decent wages and benefits,
protections on the job, and a future for their industry. We cannot leave
workers behind.

Thank you,

— Adam
