Bex Taylor-Klaus Instagram – LETS LEARN SOME SAG-AFTRA FACTS!!!
Itakes $26.4k/yr or 100 Union days to qualify for SAG-AFTRA insurance. 86% of our union does NOT qualify. 2% of Union actors are rich. 98% of SAG-AFTRA makes:
Union Background (BG)Extras- ranges $135.20/8 (16.90/hr Min.Wage) to $187/8hr ($23.375/hr).
Basic rate- or scale, $1,082 ($135.25 per hour)
Or weekly scale at $3,756 ($81.65 per hour)
Low Budget, ultra-low budget, micro budget, new media, etc. are even lower, and itās not steady work. Itās considered lucky getting more than 2days on set per week doing Union BG. Productions mostly hire NonUnion BG as much as they can because theyāre cheap (min wage) and less protected.

These guys are saying out loud that theyāre going to wait out the strike until writers start LOSING THEIR HOMES.
This is not a ābougie Hollywoodā issue. This is a LABOR issue.
Writers, actors and unions arenāt the problem.
