Writers at Sesame Workshop, including those from the Writers Guild of America East and Writers Guild of America West, unanimously voted to authorize a strike if a fair contract was not reached before the deadline. The unionized writers, numbering 35, could potentially begin picketing outside the Sesame Workshop offices in NYC. After two months of negotiations over pay and union coverage, the writers reached a tentative agreement on a new three-year collective bargaining agreement, averting the strike and securing historic jurisdiction and minimum rates for animation and new media programs, protections against AI, paid parental leave benefits, and improvements to new media residuals.
