This is the type of politician who can’t wait to be seen on a UFC or Zuffa broadcast. A pithy comment intended to be inspirational, reeks of talking points written by the capital venture that purchased his opinion. He knows nothing of the sport, its workforce, or fighters.
Rep. Morgan McGarvey@RepMcGarvey

Boxing lifted Cassius Clay from Smoketown and gave Muhammad Ali to the world. That's a legacy worth fighting for. The Muhammad Ali American Boxing Revival Act is a step in the right direction — but we have more work to do to protect boxers and the future of the sport.

I recently joined @SacCountyDA Thien Ho, local leaders, and law enforcement officers to launch the Sacramento Mail Theft Task Force. This new coordinated effort builds on my work to strengthen enforcement and crack down on mail theft by bringing together the District Attorney’s Office, local law enforcement, and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service to protect residents from fraud and hold criminals accountable. I will keep working to protect the integrity of our mail system and make sure Sacramento County residents receive their mail safely and on time.

You shouldn’t have to pay a small fortune to see your favorite artist in concert. Instead of giving consumers the relief they deserve, this Administration settled the Live Nation/Ticketmaster case. Fans deserve better—and I’ll keep fighting for real competition.

Senator Amy Klobuchar tells us that "every sign" of today's Live Nation settlement "points to a backroom deal," adding that it will do “little to lower costs, preserve venues, or protect fans” rollingstone.com/music/music-ne…

Here's the list of ampitheaters Live Nation has agreed to "divest" as part of the settlement. Um. Explain how this gets us to a competitive marketplace?

This settlement falls short of what fans deserve. Breaking up Live Nation-Ticketmaster is the only way to loosen its grip on venues, artists, and fans. I'm introducing a bill to stop corrupt antitrust settlements and I'm glad states plan to continue the case to protect consumers.

billboard.com/pro/california… The bill “is very simple. It is enforceable. It is common sense and it is fair to both fans and artists.” Well said @asmmatthaney - we are excited to partner with you to restore accessibility to concerts in California!

Ignoring the voice of independent venues and artists, @StubHub public affairs machine secures more misleading coverage… wish these “consumer groups” they have sponsored actually spoke to venue owners + fans in CA-check out the retweet of this from Stubhubs Gov Affairs head…

. @Ticketmaster and its parent company @LiveNation are once again neck deep in state legislation they contend would protect consumers but which critics say is really aimed at furthering their monopoly over live event ticketing in CA and the US capitolweekly.net/ticketmaster-i…

Ticketmaster & its parent Live Nation manipulated the market to make themselves untouchable by creating a monopoly and excluding competition.   This is illegal, plain and simple. We look forward to proving our case and holding them accountable on behalf of artists, consumers, and our marketplace. oag.ca.gov/news/press-rel…

@GavinNewsom’s book tour tickets are being resold on Stubhub for 2/3x face value to consumer + using high pressure tactics (almost sold out ) despite plenty of inventory on primary seller. Reform is badly needed! #AB1349 #AB1720 @MattHaneySF @ib2_real
