Nadler in New York

In July, a large group of ASCAP members residing in Representative Jerry Nadler's (D-NY) district gathered at the Society's New York office for a special meeting with Nadler to discuss current legislation and potential developments in Congress before year's end. The Congressman spoke about his current committee positions, chairmanship and involvement within the House Judiciary Committee, and provided insight on several possible scenarios within Congress in the coming months. Attendees were also treated to performances by Henry Krieger (Dreamgirls), jazz bassist/vocalist Jay Leonhart, singer-songwriter Christine Lavin, Charles Strouse (Annie), pianist Murray Weinstock and special guest, ASCAP Board member, Jimmy Webb.
