Petition to Change the Statute of Limitations for Claiming Music Royalties
The Issue
The statute of limitations to claim your music royalties is only three years, and we are trying to change this federal law.
Most musicians don’t understand how music royalties work, which means they aren’t collecting money that is legally theirs. It doesn't make sense to put a time limit on collecting money you don’t know you have. This petition is meant to show our friends in congress that musicians deserve a better chance to collect their money. We can change this law, all we need are numbers. Thanks for your time and consideration! Please share this!
