Check out the stellar work Go LIVE Together has assembled, with info graphics that show the event industry's contribution to the economy, toolkits and more, that provide resources to use when contacting your elected officials. They describe better than we could, what their goals are with their mission statement below. Please advocate for the events industry!
www.golivetogether.com
"Go LIVE Together has assembled leaders from across the diverse and vibrant live events ecosystem to drive local, state, and federal legislative actions that will not only be critical to our ability to put millions of people back to work, but also for our country’s economic recovery.
Every events industry recovery dollar will lead to incremental spending on travel, hotels, and restaurants, supporting Main Street merchants decimated by COVID-19. Live events industry legislative relief will serve as its own “stimulus package” because funds will be used to rekindle both an important economic sector and many connected companies. Our industry was producing tens of thousands of events per year before COVID-19, so the economic impact of live events cannot be overstated.
We hope you will join our efforts in sharing what we all already know to be true—nothing in the world will ever replace the power and need for live events."
Let’s Go LIVE Together!
