@SenatorSinema @nivassoc Senator, as many of your constituents told your office on the call @extendpua organized this fall, PPP & RESTART do not help the vast majority of workers in this industry. Assistance is needed for both businesses AND freelance workers. #ExtendPUA #ExtendFPUC #PeoplePowerEvents
Event workers were excluded from yesterday's Senate hearing on the effect of COVID-19 on our industry. Our most pressing needs went unheard, while businesses with lobby $ had the mic for 2 hours. This is unacceptable. #PeoplePowerEvents #GiveUsTheMic
@SenAmyKlobuchar Senator, venues are not the whole industry. There are millions of freelance workers who are out of time and money who will not be helped by Save Our Stages. We need relief that targets both small businesses AND individuals, NOW. #PeoplePowerEvents
The hearing concluded without a mention of COBRA or rent relief & without any real look into the millions of freelancers that make up the live events and entertainment industry & our vital and urgent needs for unemployment and underemployment relief. #PeoplePowerEvents
We are excited to watch the Live Events & Entertainment industry be represented today in the US Senate commerce committee. We hope to see industry leaders speak up for PUA, PEUC, FPUC, rent relief, healthcare relief, and more. We will be tweeting along here. #GiveUsTheMic
STILL WAITING FOR ANYONE TO MENTION THE MILLIONS OF WORKERS WHO NEED RELIEF NOW.
#PeoplePowerEvents #GiveUsTheMic
Last chance for ANY WITNESS to speak at length about what freelancers and workers need...
.@SenatorTester, please remember the WORKERS who make up this industry. PPP, Restart, and Save Our Stages DO NOT help unemployed entertainment workers who aren't attached to venues, ie MOST OF US.

Workers are facing a cliff too. PUA expires the day after Christmas, leaving millions of workers with 0 financial support. It's not the first cliff, it's the last. We lost the $600 in July and have been struggling to survive on minimal state UI and PUA since.
.@SenJackyRosen, Nevada has such a vibrant community of live events workers who are not employed by companies, but freelance throughout the state. They need your support through robust and retroactive unemployment legislation. #PeoplePowerEvents
People aren't leaving the industry to work elsewhere, they are desperately trying to find whatever work they can. THE JOBS ARE NOT THERE. This is insulting.

Strickland again talks about workers leaving the industry, but doesn't call out what we need so we will do it again for you, @SenatorCantwell.
We need unemployment support NOW - robust & retroactive FPUC, additional PUA, healthcare, and rent relief. #PeoplePowerEvents

This worker spoke to @SenatorSinema's office directly to share his story, prior to losing his home. Then he lost his home. Hope people like him get proper acknowledgment at some point in this hearing.

.@SenatorSinema An Arizona Live Events worker who advocates with us has lost his career of 30+ years, has used all of his unemployment weeks so he has been without income for over a month now, and has lost his home and is living on a friend's couch. What are you doing about that?
This is unacceptable. Liability protections encourage companies to bring workers into unsafe conditions. WE NEED DIRECT RELIEF, NOT CORPORATE PROTECTIONS.
#PeoplePowerEvents #GiveUsTheMic
Strickland speaks out in support of liability protections. A worker should be speaking in this hearing. Workers will be devastated by these proposed sweeping liability protections. We need worker protections. And we need relief passed NOW; we cannot wait for debate on the issue.
Fay remarks that 'It could take decades for this industry to recover' - that means freelancers wholly unemployed or severely underemployed for years. Even as businesses return and shows start to happen, it will take much longer for a full workforce return. #PeoplePowerEvents
Seems like these senators spent more time looking for cute song lyrics to quote than researching what the 12 million live event workers in this country need to survive.

"We don't want to be the Congress that lets the music die." @SenAmyKlobuchar. Venues aren't our music. Artists make music. Crew makes sure you can see & hear music. Workers need relief or there will be no one to fill your venues. SOS doesn't pay us. It must be both. #GiveUsTheMic
Saving our businesses does not save our industry. It must be both. Workers need robust and retroactive relief immediately. We are losing everything. #GiveUsTheMic #PeoplePowerEvents
Strickland mentions we have no lobbyists, but constituents in this industry have been directly lobbying their Senators through @ExtendPUA for the last two months. We have been telling our stories & moving the needle on relief behind closed doors. #PeoplePowerEvents #GiveUsTheMic
"Save Our Stages is great, but we can do so much more." Thank you Ron Laffitte. We must save our workers, and all workers, too. #PeoplePowerEvents
