Over 100 Democratic lawmakers came out in support of entertainment industry production workers preparing to go on a strike that would affect an estimated 60,000 workers across the country, which would be the largest strike since World War II.

The lawmakers, led by Rep. Adam Schiff and Sen. Alex Padilla, urged the group to negotiate a fair agreement with the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees, reminding them of the important role the workers played during the pandemic and warning that a strike could have unintended consequences.
