WGA + OGA 1.5.532.2

The WGA + OGA are two organizations dedicated to promoting and protecting the rights of writers in the television and film industry. The Writers Guild of America (WGA) was founded in 1933 and represents over 12,000 writers working in motion pictures, television, and digital media. The organization works to negotiate fair contracts for writers and promotes the inclusion of diverse voices in the industry.

The Writers Guild of America West (WGAW) and the Writers Guild of America East (WGAE) are two branches of the WGA that serve writers based in the western and eastern regions of the United States respectively. The WGAW and WGAE collectively negotiate contracts on behalf of their members with major studios and production companies.

The Office of Government Affairs (OGA) is a division of the WGA that focuses on federal and state legislation affecting writers. The OGA partners with lawmakers to advocate for policies that protect intellectual property rights and support fair compensation for writers.

Together, the WGA + OGA are a powerful force for protecting the rights and interests of writers across the entertainment industry. Their work is vital in ensuring that writers receive the recognition, compensation, and creative autonomy they deserve.
