Last month, Republican Congressman Steve Womack from Rogers reintroduced a concurrent resolution called the “Local Radio Freedom Act.” KUAF is a local radio station, so this caught the attention of Ozarks at Large reporters.

This resolution states that Congress should not impose any new performance fees, taxes, royalties, or other charges on local radio stations for broadcasting sound recordings over the air. Ozarks at Large’s Jack Travis reached out to Rep. Womack for more information.
