🚨Breaking News: A2IM and ARA along with SONA, AFM & Recording Academy lead coalition of musician and songwriter advocates championing the reintroduction of Protect Working Musicians Act (PWMA).

A big thank you to Rep. Deborah Ross (D-NC-02) for reintroducing this landmark legislation! The PWMA would allow independent artists and labels to work together to negotiate collectively with AI developers and streaming platforms, giving them a meaningful seat at the table for the first time, and a clear pathway to fair and equitable compensation.
