From what I understand, the performers royalties are new, separate royalties and are not to be taken from the share already allocated to the writers and publishers. If the latter is being discussed, it is a new initiative and not part of the original legislative push.
Also, writers do get a share of the ticket sales for live performances. That is what the fees the venues pay to the PROs is for, royalties for the writers and publishers. If artists are performing your songs live and you are not getting any royalties, you had better contact your PRO because they probably own you money.

"Defeatist Pessimists and Rose Colored Glasses Optimists are lonely companions, victims even. Both ideologies imply predestined outcomes, and therefore breed inactivity in its victims. Inaction is the only sure way to lose at anything in life. All positive action guarantees at least a fighting chance." -Brian Austin Whitney
