To reform current busking laws, so the current laws specify pan-handling and busking as two separate things.

Many state wide, city ordnance. Try to eliminate bums or homeless people from there cities by making laws that effectively make being homeless illegal in those areas. Most laws also specify that if a person is begging or panhandling money then that also would be considered an illegal offense to society. Though all of these laws they think busking or the act or to play music and allowing financial compensation to also be considered panhandling. While panhandling would be begging for money on the streets buskers are people with jobs and homes much like every other American. The only difference is that buskers do not require the money. Buskers are always willing to accept a donation but do not necessarily need that money to survive like panhandlers do.
