Per a press release, the “Save Our Stages Act” would provide six months of financial support to help “keep venues afloat, pay employees and preserve a critical economic sector for communities across America.” Independent music and entertainment venues have been among the hardest-hit businesses during the COVID-19 crisis. Even as some portions of the economy begin to re-open, venues will likely remain closed for some time, as the coronavirus is believed to spread especially quickly in crowded indoor spaces. In a statement, the National Independent Venue Association hailed the “Save Our Stage” act. “While existing government assistance programs have helped other industries, they weren’t tailored to meet the needs of small businesses like ours that have zero revenue, enormous overhead and no visibility into when we can fully re-open,” said Adam Hartke, the co-chair of the organization’s advocacy committee. “The Save Our Stages Act will provide the assistance we need to get through the shutdown until we can reopen safely and once again become the economic generators for our communities that we’ve always been.” The “Save Our Stages” act arrives on the heels of another relief bill, the RESTART Act, which was introduced in both the Senate and the House. It isn’t specifically tailored to music venues, but broadly focuses on businesses with high overhead and no revenue during the pandemic, a category that definitely includes venues. Earlier this month, the NIVA issued a letter signed by the three major labels, as well as Spotify, Amazon Music and YouTube, urging legislators to support the RESTART Act.” Full article here: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/senate-bill-independent-venues-covid-19-relief-aid-1032542/ (Link In Bio) #saveourstages #niva #saveindependentvenues #amyklobuchar #johncomyn」7月25日 5時07分
