President Biden has voiced his support for the WGA and said writers deserve a fair deal.
Picketing is expected to continue on Tuesday for the ongoing Writers Guild of America strike, and powerful allies such as Screen Actors Guild president Fran Drescher and President Joe Biden are voicing their support for the writers.
"This is an iconic, meaningful American industry. And we need the writers and all the workers and everyone involved to tell the stories of our nation and the stories of all of us," Biden said. "We will always support our sister unions. Always. Without solidarity amongst the entertainment unions, you know, we undermine ourselves," said Drescher, who joined the picket line outside of Paramount on Monday.
