Music Creators Need
A Voice in Washington

The Grammy organization is the only membership organization that represents all music creators and no corporate members. For more than 25 years, our Advocacy & Public Policy team has fought at the federal, state, and local levels to protect creators' rights, secure fair compensation, and ensure that the people who make music have a say in the policies that affect their livelihoods.

From landmark legislation like the Music Modernization Act to fighting for AI transparency and fair radio royalties, the Grammy organization turns grassroots energy into real policy change.

Why Advocacy Matters to Creators

My song plays on the radio hundreds of times a week. I get paid by streaming, by satellite, by internet radio. AM/FM? Nothing. That's not right.

“Going to Capitol Hill and sitting across from my senator, explaining how AI deepfakes threaten my voice and my livelihood, that changed everything for me.”

“The AMP Act meant that for the first time in history, my work as a producer was recognized in copyright law. That happened because Academy members showed up.”
