Writers Guild of America West
@WGAWest
A labor union representing writers of motion pictures, television, radio, and internet programming.
WGAW joined Governor Newsom today as he signed a bill to expand the CA Film and TV Tax Incentive. Funding for the jobs program will more than double to $750 million, a crucial step to keeping production jobs in CA. #KeepCaliforniaRolling

"As an upper-level writer, I’ve gotten into the habit of telling writers I meet, and like, to stay in touch. I give them my email. You’d be surprised how often they don’t follow up." #Writtenby writtenby.com/career-craft/a…

AB 1138 has passed! The goal of expanding and modernizing California’s Film and Television Jobs Program was achieved through the tireless efforts of WGAW members, our partners in the EUC, and our allies in the state legislature. #KeepCaliforniaRolling hollywoodreporter.com/business/busin…
