Always honored to be included in the convo about live events. Josh, thank you for always covering the industry. “Optimistic but cautious” is the theme right now. Let’s not F*%k it up! Producers pls be responsible! @LiveEventsCo @AZEventsCo @BanditLites
Yesterday, I spoke with @DaveTyda (Phoenix Pizza Fest, Donut Fest, and FRIED Fest) Steve LeVine, of @SteveLeVineEnt (Chandler Ostrich Fest, Scottsdale Fashion Week), and Jeremy Helfgot (@PhoenixPrideAZ) about future of Valley events. abc15.com/entertainment/even…
.@SBAgov how are SVOG candidates on the brink of closing supposed to afford, and/or accomplish in time to apply, this new requirement just released on Friday: Copy of most recent Audited Financial Statement (2019)??
Venues could have been working on this for the past two months!

In a conversation with @SenSanders staff today about the need for retroactive relief they said more personal stories would really help in their fight for us.
Share your story so we can pass it along to legislators at extendpua.org/sharestories AND write them yourself at /write.

Arizona has the highest rate in the world for #COVID19
@Garrett_Archer confirms the numbers, and a top scientist I know did too.

With a *$600* relief check, you could pay the median monthly rent for January in approximately zero states.

As soon as this bill is done it will be time to fight for the next one to be better. 💪 #StimulusCheckNOW #CashReliefNow @HumanityForward

Another great piece on the need for relief from @themaxburns.
Our favorite bit? "For some GOP senators, even pretending to prioritize the unemployed is too much effort. [...] @SenatorLoeffler flatly refused to even consider additional payments to at-risk Georgians." #ReliefNow

Sensing this as well. I don't have a single employee (other than myself) yet "employ" many on event days. Doesn't seem to be much acknowledgement of businesses that operate like this. PUA is the only way to get aid to these hardworking folks.
There’s also thousands of unemployed and freelance live events workers who are in desperate need of retroactivity and full extension of PUA & FPUC.

We cannot call RESTART a wholistic bill. It does not assist workers. We DO need a wholistic solution and that means comprehensive relief: RESTART, SOS, additional weeks for PUA/PEUC, retroactive FPUC, healthcare relief, and rent relief. People power events and entertainment.

.@SenatorSinema An Arizona Live Events worker who advocates with us has lost his career of 30+ years, has used all of his unemployment weeks so he has been without income for over a month now, and has lost his home and is living on a friend's couch. What are you doing about that?

It’s been 74 days since the House passed a stimulus bill to send out stimulus checks, extend unemployment, and support our small businesses. It’s time for the Senate to come to the table. Families can’t wait.

Tuesday 10amET We will be live tweeting responses to the Senate hearing on COVID19's impact on the Entertainment industry. No workers were invited to give live testimony so we will submit written testimony & live tweet to hold elected & industry leaders accountable. #GiveUsTheMic
