Great news! Animation workers @TooningOut have overwhelmingly voted to join the #AnimationGuild. The 2nd group of #animation workers & production staff in NY to do so in less than a year. We congratulate them on using their collective voice to #unionize! @IATSE @LNC_Collective

Reminder that Titmouse Production workers are currently in negotiations. 4 other workers and myself are on the committee are fighting for better working conditions, as are @TMNY_Union in their negotiations!
🧵// As of 3/24/22, Titmouse (aka Robin Red Breast) recognized our union formed by production workers working for the LA site. Initially a body of 69 people, we are still growing and becoming stronger as we now are officially a part of TAG 839.

Animation Domination! That's right, production workers at #TheSimpsons, #AmericanDad & #FamilyGuy have filed to unionize under the #AnimationGuild! Together, they boast more that 750 years of animation industry experience - let's show them some respect! #productionstrong
