Political and Legislative Engagement

Local 802 works with local government officials, elected officials, campaigns and industry stakeholders to help influence policy and advocate for the interests and needs of all musicians.


Tempo 802

"Tempo 802" is Local 802’s Political Action Fund. This fund, split between the Federal fund for national representatives ("Tempo 802, Inc.") and the NY State fund for local and state representatives ("Tempo 802 Inc. Of The Associated Musicians Of Greater New York"), makes it possible for Local 802 to support and partner with elected officials and government allies as we work to champion the priorities, rights and goals of musicians and working people at the local, state, national and international levels.
