Congressman
Henry E. Brown, Jr.

I recently joined over 110 of my colleagues as a co-sponsor to a bipartisan House resolution opposing the introduction of "any new performance fee, tax, royalty, or other charge" on local radio stations. The Local Radio Freedom Act (H. Con. Res 49), unveiled today at a Capitol Hill event hosted by the Free Radio Alliance, would protect all local radio stations in the First District and all over the nation from having incurring additional costs due to the broadcasting of sound recordings on their station.

An identical resolution is expected to be introduced in the Senate soon.
