\n

\n\tThe American Music Tourism Act, Mitigating Automated Internet Networks (MAIN) for Event Ticketing Act, and Helping Independent Tracks Succeed (HITS) Act have all been re-introduced to the Senate. Recently, the American Music Tourism Act was also re-introduced to Congress. <\/p>\n

\n\tEach year, bills that have not yet passed must be re-introduced to the House and the Senate to be put back into consideration. The American Music Tourism Act<\/a> was first introduced to the Senate in 2024, and the MAIN Event Ticketing Act<\/a> was initially introduced in 2023, while the HITS Act<\/a> first appeared in the Senate in 2020.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tBlackburn and Hickenlooper Introduce Senate Bill to Boost U.S. Music Tourism, Calling Venues\u2026\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

\n\tEach bill targets a key issue in the music business. The American Music Tourism Act, introduced by Sens. Marsha Blackburn<\/strong> (R-Tenn.) and John Hickenlooper<\/strong> (D-Colo.), would promote music-related tourism in the U.S. to sites like Graceland and The Grammy Museum and concerts like Taylor Swift\u2019s Eras tour. The MAIN Event Ticketing Act, introduced by Sen. Blackburn and Sen. Ben Ray Luj\u00e1n<\/strong> (D-NM), would further mitigate ticketing bots and would build on President Obama\u2019s Better Online Ticket Sales (BOTS) Act. HITS Act, introduced by Sen. Blackburn and Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto<\/strong> (D-Nev.), would give indie musicians the ability to deduct 100% of record production expenses in the year they are incurred, rather than in later years.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe American Music Tourism Act, the MAIN Event Ticketing Act and the HITS Act are all strongly supported by the music business establishment. This includes previous endorsements from the Recording Industry Association of America, Nashville Songwriters Association International, ASCAP, National Music Publishers Association, Live Nation Entertainment, National Independent Venues Association, BMI and many more. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe Volunteer State is home to so many iconic musical landmarks \u2013 from Graceland in Memphis to the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville to Dollywood in Pigeon Forge,\u201d\u00a0says Sen. Blackburn, a longtime supporter of the music business.\u00a0\u201cThese three bills will promote music tourism across the state of Tennessee, better protect consumers and artists from scammers, and provide tax deductions to support independent music creators.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
