In September members of Seen & Heard participated in the #RedAlert #WeMakeEvents initiative in support of the RESTART Act and the Push for 600 March in support of the HEROES Act. The RESTART Act is a piece of legislation that supports venues, while the HEROES Act supports workers.
Our Seen & Heard team is actively communicating with Austin City Council, advocating on behalf of our community’s entertainment workers and their eligibility to access financial assistance and unemployment benefits during the shutdown of our industry.
By advocating for legislation that supports workers and the live entertainment industry we are able to engage with our Live Music Capital’s workers, hear their stories, and understand their needs.
