Linda Harcharic
Delegate
35 year member; have previously served as Chair of L.A. Local Elections Committee, L.A. Local Communications Committee, L.A. Open Board Committee and member of the National and L.A. Local Background Committees, National Organizing Committee, National Communications Committee, and alternate on the President's Blue Ribbon Commission on Safety and the Music Video Negotiating Committee.
Issues I care about:
AI replacing principal and background actor jobs; lack of coverage for background actors wall-to-wall across the nation as there is for all other work categories within SAG-AFTRA; wages not keeping up with the cost of living; far outdated contract allowances and penalty payments; extremely low residual structure on streaming platforms; no regulation of online casting services resulting in pay-to-play in order to audition/apply for work.
