Today, the @Europarl_EN adopted by an ovewhelming majority a resolution on EU coordinated action to combat #Covid_19 and its consequences. It shows the EP's strong support to the cultural and creative sectors (CCS) @EPCulture @sabineverheyen @nnienass @Ibangarciadb 👇
It “underlines that the CCS in Member States have been hit especially hard by the fallout from #Covid_19 due to the closure of cinemas, theatres and music venues and the sudden stop of ticket sales;" @LiveDMA @Liveurope @UNIC_Cinemas @Efads_Asso @IMPALAMusic @EMC_IMC 👇 
"highlights the fact that, as these sectors have high numbers of freelance and self-employed workers, many of whom were struggling well before the outbreak, the effects are particularly dire for creative professionals .. @salima_yenbou @AlexisMep @Film_directors
....whose income streams have been unexpectedly reduced to zero and who now have little or no support from the social system". AND👉 "Calls for support to be provided, both at Union and national level, to the cultural and creative sectors... @GabrielMariya @ThierryBreton @JHahnEU
... as they are severely affected by the current crisis and play an important role for our economy as well as for our social life;" Well said and thanks🙏to all MEPs for this strong 💪support @EP_President @IratxeGarper @ManfredWeber @CiolosDacian @vonderleyen
