SAG-AFTRA’s strike against video game employers went into effect on Friday, July 26. Please show your support by joining video game performers as they picket at Electronic Arts Productions Inc.

Remember to bring water, sun protection and your SAG-AFTRA gear!

If you are not feeling well, please stay home -- there will be plenty of other opportunities to show your support. 

We’ve also launched sagaftra.org/videogamestrike where you can find detailed information, helpful FAQs and social media toolkits.
