  • Signatories criticize the guild for its silence on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and its failure to respond to calls for a ceasefire.
  • Members report being ignored by union leadership and facing harassment and job loss for advocating Palestinian rights.
  • The letter demands a public statement from SAG-AFTRA calling for a permanent ceasefire, protection for journalists, and condemnation of industry repression.
