District Advocacy Day
This week I was excited to meet my US Congresswoman, Grace Meng, as part of The Recording Academy's District Advocacy day.
It was great to meet her!
We thanked her for supporting the Music Modernization Act which was recently passed and is now the law of the land! We also discussed issues like modernizing the Copyright office, The CASE Act, the importance of Music Education, and ways we can improve the pathway to success for songwriters and emerging artists.
I'm looking forward to being able to follow up with our discussion at a later date.
Folks, I can't say this enough,. our federal, state and local Members of Congress are accessible and actually care about issues that affect their community.
They are regular people just like us.
Got an issue? Got something stuck in your craw? Wondering why that pothole on the corner never gets fixed?
Write a letter, make a call, make an appointment.
As we like to say in NYC, if you see something, say something.
