The Creators Guild of America (CGA) has introduced a new tool that enables digital creators in the United States to send direct messages to members of Congress. The platform, called Creators Voice, was announced on June 6 and is designed to support advocacy around legislation that affects the creator economy.
Tool provides a simplified advocacy process
According to CGA, the tool enables creators to share their perspectives on policies related to digital labor, including topics such as copyright enforcement, brand transparency and fair pay. Users enter their ZIP code, select an issue and send a pre-written message to their congressional representatives. The form can be completed in under five minutes.
CGA collaborated with legal and policy experts to develop messaging options, which the organization claims are aligned with current legislative discussions. The platform is free to use and open to all U.S.-based content creators, including those on platforms such as TikTok, YouTube and Instagram.
Advocacy effort follows broader policy concerns
This launch follows increased legislative interest in regulating digital platforms and user-generated content. In 2024, proposed legislation, such as the RESTRICT Act, and renewed efforts to limit certain social media platforms raised concerns across the creator community. Although creators often voice their opinions online, formal avenues for engaging with policymakers have been limited.
CGA’s initiative reflects a broader push to professionalize and organize creator advocacy. While the impact of mass messaging campaigns varies, the platform offers a centralized tool for a growing sector of independent workers who have historically lacked direct representation in policy discussions.
The Creators Guild of America was founded in 2022 to support content creators with resources, advocacy and industry standards. Creators Voice is its latest effort to increase participation in legislative conversations that shape the digital work landscape.
The platform is now live at creatorsvoice.org. CGA encourages creators to utilize the tool to share their perspectives on policy matters that impact their work and income.
