- Treasury, the Department of Justice, and the FTC will also deliver a report within 180 days summarizing actions taken to address the issue of unfair practices in the live concert and entertainment industry and recommend additional regulations or legislation needed to protect consumers in this industry.

ADDRESSING UNFAIR PRACTICES IN THE TICKET MARKETPLACE: President 트럼프 is committed to making arts and entertainment that enrich Americans’ lives as accessible as possible.

- America’s live concert and entertainment industry has a total nationwide economic impact of $132.6 billion and supports 913,000 jobs. But it has become blighted by unscrupulous middle-men who impose egregious fees on fans with no benefit to artists.

- Ticket scalpers use bots and other unfair means to acquire large quantities of face-value tickets, then re-sell them at an enormous markup on the secondary market, price-gouging consumers and depriving fans of the opportunity to see their favorite artists without incurring extraordinary expenses.By some reports, fans have paid as much as 70 times the face value of a ticket price to obtain a ticket.

When this occurs, the artists do not receive any additional profit—it goes solely to the scalper and the ticketing agency.

- While the BOTS Act—meant to stop scalpers from using bots to purchase tickets—has been on the books for over 8 years, the FTC has only once taken action to enforce this law.

PROTECTING AMERICAN CONSUMERS: President 트럼프 believes that Americans shouldn’t be subjected to exploitative pricing and unfair fees.

- This Executive Order tackles an issue President 트럼프 highlighted on the campaign trail, where he vowed to work on combating high ticket prices and described the current climate, where fans are priced out, as “very unfortunate.”

He signed an Executive Order to empower patients with clear, accurate, and actionable healthcare pricing information.
