(The Center Square) – A coalition of bipartisan lawmakers introduced legislation into both the House and Senate with hopes of bringing the movie and film production industry back home, an occurrence that would protect and create U.S. jobs as well as boost local economies.
A bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced legislation Thursday that would create a federal tax incentive for film and television productions made in the U.S. in an effort to keep entertainment jobs from moving overseas.
State Senator Suzette Martinez Valladares (R-Santa Clarita) joined 38 of her legislative colleagues in sending a letter to Governor Gavin Newsom, Senate President Pro Tempore Limón and Assembly Speaker Rivas, urging them to protect entertainment industry jobs threatened by tax credit caps included in SB 122.
