The Writers Guild of America (WGA) are two independent American sister labor unions, each representing writers in film, television, radio, and online media: While both organizations operate independently, each performs some common activities, including negotiating contracts, launching strike actions, maintaining the American database of writing credits, and arbitrating between writers when conflicts arise. Membership in either WGAE or WGAW is generally contingent on geography. If a writer is eligible for union membership, and the job that grants them eligibility has them work on the western side of the Mississippi River, they are represented by the Writers Guild of America West. If the job is on the east side of the river, similarly, they are represented by the Writers Guild of America East. If a writer joins one union at the start of their career, and they move across the Mississippi River, they are not required to transfer to the other guild. They must remain in good standing (pay all outstanding dues, pay off any loans taken out, etc.) with their original guild, and requesting a transfer between the unions is then optional.
