Contact your Senators and Representatives
Thank you for writing to me regarding proposed changes to the assessment of royalty fees that Internet radio broadcasters pay to musicians and record labels. I appreciate hearing from you on this issue.
As you may know, the federal Copyright Royalty Board recently released its plan for charging online radio broadcasters for royalties.
As a member of the Senate Commerce Committee, which has jurisdiction over telecommunications issues, I am following this matter very closely. Please be assured that I will keep your views in mind should legislation on this issue be considered.
Again, thank you for writing to me. Please keep in touch with me about this and any other issue of concern to you.
Barbara Boxer
United States Senator
