The members of the 13 IATSE locals, as listed below, will be asked to vote on whether to authorise a strike at the end of this week. The vote will run from Friday morning to Sunday evening, with the result expected to be announced to the AMPTP on Monday the 4th October. If a strike is authorised, it could affect 450 productions in North America. It could also effect UK productions if they have members of the 13 IATSE locals on their crew. Further information can be found in the guidance pages of the members section.
