Urges Congress to respond to consolidation of ticket industry.

This Assembly Resolution (AR 119) urges the U.S. Congress to address issues arising from the consolidation of the ticket industry. It specifically references the 2010 merger of Live Nation and Ticketmaster, which now controls an estimated 70% of the ticketing market, leading to excessive consumer fees, surge pricing, and reduced competition. The resolution highlights how these practices harm consumers (who face inflated prices at primary and resale markets) and performers (who lose revenue control). It does not propose new laws but formally requests congressional action to resolve these market problems. The resolution was introduced by Assemblywoman Shanique Speight (District 29) and sent to Congress for consideration.
