California Production Workers Increase Pressure On State Lawmakers To Support Expanded Film & TV Tax Credit Proposal

"Production workers in California are under immense pressure to ensure state lawmakers prioritize a much-needed revamp of the Film & Tax Credit Program, with over 100,000 letters and thousands of in-person testimonies now supporting SB630 and AB1138. While some hurdles remain, including a recent Assembly member's conservative stance on one bill, both are moving swiftly toward the Senate and Assembly floors. The initiative has been a key focus forGov. Gavin Newsom, who is determined to secure funding expansion. Additionally, California may soon explore federal tax incentives as part of a broader national conversation."
