Family says late
Singer stood against ‘racism and discrimination of any kind’
The family of Tom Petty has issued a formal cease and desist letter to the
Donald Trump campaign over its use of his song I Won’t Back Down at a rally in Tulsa on 20 June.
In a statement posted on
Twitter, Adria, Annakim, Dana and Jane Petty said the US president was “in no way authorised to use this song to further a campaign that leaves too many Americans and common sense left behind”.
