We, the Actors and Producers of Louisiana, in order to create a more perfect Union and an everlasting film presence in Louisiana, demand the Screen Actors Guild cover Background Actors in the State of Louisiana.
I am signing this petition because I am a supporter of Unionizing Background Actors in Louisiana and/or because I am an Actor in Louisiana who is unable to provide substantial income and/or health benefits because of the current Non-Union Background Coverage situation.
We, the Actors and Producers of Louisiana, demand the Screen Actors Guild negotiate Background Coverage for Louisiana in the upcoming contract.
I have been hearing from so many of you about the constant struggle for basic coverage and it honestly just confirms why this has to happen now. My inbox is essentially a messy collection of stories about missing benefits and it is all very exhausting but also keeps me going because none of us should have to live like this.

Louisiana isn’t the armpit of the film industry, but the treatment of the background talent in this state sure does STINK! I encourage all talent to stand together, united in solidarity, and REFUSE to work until our demands are met. Vive la résistance!
