At a videoconference meeting today in New York and LA, AFTRA’s national board unanimously voted to approve joint bargaining with SAG for the Primetime Television Contract and the SAG TV/theatrical contract. Negotiations between SAG and the AMPTP are currently scheduled to begin October 1 and run through November 15.
