Read Gene’s op-ed here: wsj.com/opinion/eu-and-big-r…

.@GeneSimmons just published a new @WSJ op-ed about how Europe is trying to take hundreds of millions of dollars from American artists. Only Congress can stop it by passing the American Music Fairness Act.
Michael Huppe retweeted
.@NABTweets is on Capitol Hill today lobbying against paying artists for radio. As the legendary @GeneSimmons put it last December, a $14 billion a year industry should be able to afford to pay artists something for using their music.

NEW: Support continues to grow on both sides of the aisle. @eleonard1987 of the Christian Music Trade Assn met with Republicans on Capitol Hill last week and lays out the conservative case for passing the American Music Fairness Act in @DC_Reporter today. washingtonreporter.news/op-e…

.@StevieNicks, @celinedion, @BarbraStreisand, and @sheryllcrow_co are asking Congress to pass the American Music Fairness Act so that artists get paid fairly when their music plays on AM/FM radio.
This Women’s History Month, let’s stand with them. #NoRadioWithoutRoyalties

Congress listened to the voices of artists! The end-of-year spending bill does NOT provide another mandate for Big Radio. It’s time for @NABTweets to come to the table and agree to pay artists for their music. #NoRadioWithoutRoyalties

Rock & Roll Hall of Famer @NancyWilson of @officialheart took to Capitol Hill today to visit lawmakers and share her support of the American Music Fairness Act.
Artists deserve to be paid when their songs play on over AM/FM radio. Thank you, Nancy!

The hypocrisy of @nabtweets renting out @NationalsPark for their State Leadership Conference while simultaneously claiming they can’t afford to pay artists for the use of their work is staggering.

Did you know the United States is the only democratic country in the world that
doesn’t pay artists when our music gets played on the radio? That’s not right.
