Advocacy

The Nevada Broadcasters Association advocates on behalf of the broadcasting industry. Serving the broadcasting community at the local, state and Federal levels, we work hard to protect broadcasting and partner with policymakers to make our industry stronger. Some of the initiatives we are working on are:

·        Performance Tax – We are advocating for the Local Radio Freedom Act to protect local radio stations against paying any kind of royalty fee.

·        Advertising Tax Deductibility – We are against changing the tax treatment of advertising which would have a devastating impact on local broadcasters.

·        Microsoft’s Spectrum Grab: We are against Microsoft’s efforts to acquire free spectrum to operate unlicensed devices.

·      STELAR: The Satellite Television Extension and Localism Act Reauthorization should be allowed to expire.
