The committee reached a decision to remove the language that threatened the viability of Music Choice. This legislative adjustment ensures the platform remains operational as the broader bill moves forward. We will continue to monitor the final vote to ensure the protections we secured remain in place.

Dear Senator Booker,
I am a constituent of yours living in New Jersey and I enjoy greatly the musical offerings of my Music Choice channels.
I understand that the Senate Judiciary Committee is considering legislation called the Music Modernization Act and that while it does a lot to make sure that songwriters receive increased royalty payments for their beautiful songs, a small part of the bill would change how Music Choice and other cable music companies pay large record companies for playing songs and that part of the bill would threaten the continued existence of Music Choice.
I don't understand why Congress would create a new law that would injure Music Choice while it is trying to solve a completely unrelated problem involving songwriters. Please make sure that if your Committee considers the Music Modernization Act, you take out the part that would put Music Choice at risk. It's far too important to me and millions of other listeners around the country to take it away without good reason.
Thank you

The growth of this petition has reached a level that commands attention from the Senate Judiciary Committee staff. I have finalized a formal memo detailing our concerns for their review by the end of the week. My next move is a scheduled briefing with a representative from the office to discuss the specific language threatening Music Choice.

I really love the holiday stations. They are a tradition in our house. Save music choice!
Music choice has been around forever. Its unfair to threaten a service people actually use and enjoy.
PLEASE keep music choice on air! I listen to it every single day while cleaning and cooking. It would be a huge loss if it got taken away.
Total nonsense. Why fix something that isnt broken? Leave our stations alone.
Music choice is the only reason I pay for cable these days. Dont mess this up.

Seriously? Congress needs to find better ways to spend their time instead of ruining my music listening experience.
