Los Angeles, May 15 (TIWN) California Governor Gavin Newsom has announced a new measureby adding $30 million to boost the state's film and television tax incentive program.
According to the Los Angeles City's Economic and Workforce Department, the industry contributed more than $30 billion annually to California and supported more than 200,000 local jobs before the Covid-19 pandemic. Moreover, Newsom said this measure was designed to show the state's political gesture against those states who passed voter suppression legislation, like Georgia. "This is an opportunity for those productions, TV and others, in places like Georgia, whose values don't necessarily always align with the production crews to consider coming back to the state of California," Newsom said at a press conference in Sacramento on Friday.
