Many here criticize Jordan for "doing nothing" (even though they have no clue what he's up to) and then come after ALW with a pitchfork when he tries anything. PICK A SIDE PEOPLE!
ALW has tried incredible things during the pandemic, weird that anyone would criticize that.
"Where are the leaders? The powerful and influential folks who will organize support for the ARTS! Not just their individual theaters or production but organized support the way Great Britain has done. Has there been any messages of unified action from the non-profits: Andre Bishop, Lynne Meadow, Oscar Eustis, Todd Haimes, Carole Rothman? What about the commercial theater producers- Scott Rudin, the Roths, Jeffrey Richards, the Shuberts, the Nederlanders?" —AllThatChat user Billhaven

Well I came after ALW with a well-deserved pitchfork, probably more than anyone, and I have not criticized (or defended) Jordan, so maybe check your facts.
FWIW urging private philanthropy is basically a conservative principle, and urging billionaires to use their money to bring about legislation (that we would love to see) is anathema to the principle that our core problem as a nation is that we have not outlawed money in politics.

Bill, if you are on BWW as well, BRAVO!"
Some of the people on that list have already met with the incoming Biden administration. Publicizing that would do nothing to help and may actually hurt those discussions. Just because we don't see something happening doesn't mean it's not happening.
