AFM Recording Musicians Grievance to the Local 257 Hearing Board
Final supporters
The current AFM SRLA expired over 2&1/2 years ago. The Federation By-laws clearly state that upon expiration, either a new agreement must be negotiated, or a 6 month extension must be put to a ratification vote by the relevant members. The AFM has done neither.

Why do we have to petition for our money? AFM doesn’t pay; they collect and distribute. Is it their money?
It’s time to pay the Recording Musicians who’s work generated these payments in the first place. In 2021, these fees totaled roughly $36 million dollars, divided equally between the Singer’s and Musician’s Unions. The singers got their 18Mil, and we got zero. In what universe is this fair ?

Thanks Steve! This is way overdue
Thanks for all you do, Steve!
Get ‘‘em Steve!
It's hard to believe we have to fight for this. It's pretty clear who played on what.
Long overdue to review and change this

Spread the word among recording musicians. This is our money, not the union’s to use for political favor.
