The Animation Guild voted to ratify its new contract with studios and streamers, according to multiple media reports. This new three-year contract was accepted by 76.1 percent of the guild’s voting members, marking a historic turnout that surpassed last cycle’s vote.
“I want to recognize the incredible work that the Negotiations Committee put into seeing this agreement reached and ratified,” Steve Kaplan, the business representative for the Animation Guild, said in a statement. “This agreement is the next step forward in our goal to create the strongest contract for our members. The advancements made here are plenty, but there is also much work to be done with regard to addressing the priority matters that were not fully answered.
