The Directors Guild of America (DGA) and International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) are on board.

We remain committed to reforms that protect our members through negotiations with the studios or legislation in California and other states. Those changes require prioritizing safety and allocating resources to make it happen on the ground.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Aren&#8217;t these the same folks that wail about banning guns, confiscating guns, etc. in the name of &#8220;gun safety&#8221;?
