Neil Young posted a lawsuit accusing President Donald Trump’s campaign of copyright infringement.

Neil Young says he's changed his mind about suing Donald Trump

Political campaigns can get licenses from performing rights organizations ASCAP and BMI to play songs at events without direct approval from artists. Musicians can get their songs removed from the available catalog of licensed songs . "Imagine what it feels like to hear ‘Rockin’ in the Free World’ after this president speaks, like it is his theme song," Young wrote on his website."I did not write it for that."On July 3, Trump spoke at Mount Rushmore, where he condemned those attacking monuments across the country and announced he would sign an executive order to establish a"National Garden of American Heroes.""This is NOT ok with me," Young wrote on Twitter at the time.

Earlier this year, the Canadian-born artist announced that he became a citizen of the United States after having previously revealed that the 2020 election is what encouraged him to do so. He said he wanted to"vote my conscience on Donald J. Trump and his fellow American candidates" because"we’ve got a climate emergency, and governments are not acting."
