Film Workers to Rally Sunday in Support of Doubling California Tax Incentive: ‘There’s Been No Work’
Film and TV workers will gather at SirReel Studio Services on Sunday to rally in favor of a major expansion of the California film incentive.
Some 1,500 film and TV workers are set to rally this weekend in Los Angeles in support of restoring lost production jobs, as the industry continues to struggle with a content slowdown. Union and business leaders are pushing for legislation to more than double the California production tax incentive, and to open up the program to a wider range of projects, including sitcoms and animation. Legislative committees have held two hearings on the bill, and heard often emotional testimony from film workers who had lost their health insurance or been forced to raid their retirement funds.
