The group that just ended its historic Hollywood strike is the Writers Guild of America (WGA) . The WGA represents more than 11,000 writers, and the strike lasted for nearly five months, making it the longest in Hollywood history. The WGA reached a tentative three-year deal with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, which still needs to be ratified by the members of the WGA. The deal includes meaningful gains and protections for writers in every sector of the membership. However, the tentative deal does not immediately end the strike, and the WGA has encouraged its members to join the picket line for the actors strike instead this week. The actors union, SAG-AFTRA, has also been on strike since mid-July.
