Over the past several months, we've been sharing with you information on an unfair tax that radio stations that play music like WMTR could soon face.

We've shared with you that the international record labels are asking Congress for a handout and they want to take it from local radio stations like WMTR.

There are currently two bills pending in Congress that would levy a performance tax on local radio - H.R.848 , sponsored by Rep. John Conyers (MI-14) and S.379, sponsored by Sen. Patrick Leahy (VT).

The effects of a performance tax would be catastrophic, potentially forcing stations out of business, causing additional job cuts in the radio industry, stifling airplay for new artists, reducing our ability to contribute to community organizations that rely on radio for support, and harming the listening public who depend on local radio right here in New Jersey.

If you agree with us that a performance tax on local radio is a bad idea, your members of Congress need to hear that you strongly oppose these bills.

Below you will find a list of the members of Congress for our area and a way you can contact them today.
