Massachusetts is on the forefront of community media. In fact, there are twice as many community media outlets in Massachusetts than there are in any other state. Your support will help us continue our services for Public, Educational and Government media in the Commonwealth.
Our member stations are the eyes and ears of the community. Let’s keep them vibrant and healthy for years to come.
MassAccess Lobbying Campaign
Streaming video providers continue to profit from subscriptions in Massachusetts, but don’t pay for the use of the public rights of way like cable providers do. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, its municipalities, and the community media centers that serve them can all benefit from asking streaming entertainment providers to pay for their use of public property.
Community media stations are providing more vital services to Massachusetts residents than ever and are doing so on increasingly lower budgets. The time is right to update Massachusetts laws to ensure these services can continue well into the future.
Help MassAccess lobby in support of H.91/S.2556, An Act to modernize funding for community media programming by donating today. Your support will help us level the playing field and secure future funding for community media in Massachusetts.
