Good news from Washington for foreign musicians who want
to perform in the US. HR-1312 was passed by the House on Tuesday...the Senate
still needs to do the same before it goes to President Bush. HR-1312 is called
the ARTS Act, ARTS an acronym for Arts Require Timely Service. Even before 9-11
-- but especially since 9-11 -- timeliness has been at the center of the
problems for many artists overseas who are applying for visas to come here. The
World's Marco Werman has more.
