APA News Alert: APA and the Copyright Alliance White House Letter
Dear Colleague,
Advertising Photographers of America is partnering with the Copyright
Alliance in asking you to sign a letter that is being sent to
President Obama and Vice President Biden. APA's advocacy efforts to
support strong copyright protections for photographers and all owners
of intellectual property are a vital component of our mission. With
the threat of further erosion of copyright protections on the
horizon, sending a message now to the President is an opportunity
that should not be missed.
The Copyright Alliance is a non-partisan coalition of associations,
creators and copyright industry leaders that give a voice to
individual authors of creative content including photographers. This
letter allows your voice to be heard in cooperation and inclusion
with creatives from all areas of intellectual property.
Let the White House know that their support is critical to the
protection of the rights of artists and the continued value of
creative efforts in today's society.
Go to
http://www.copyrightalliance.org/letter/ to sign the
letter. It is an easy process of entering your name, city, state,
type of artist and email address. Click the sign button and you're all done.
Once you have signed the letter please forward it on to your
colleagues and friends in all areas of creative output.
Thank you,
Theresa Raffetto Stephen Best
President APA National CEO APA National
