The film business is a clean industry. Although some may argue the incentives are nothing more than a kick back there is no other way to compete for the business!

I'm a South Florida actor and Assistant Director. Please bring back the film industry by signing the tax incentives documents. This benefits everyone and our economy will be fruitful like it used to be.

Florida desperately needs this tax incentive program. The numbers speak for themselves when speak of episodic television and major motion pictures. Please please we urge you to discuss this topic during your special session. If not waiting another full year to even discuss the topic will be a devastating our industry!

This is a jobs bill with a 5:1 ROI, conservatively. The detractors don't understand the bill or have a questionable agenda. The positive economic impact to Florida will be staggering,

I can't believe I heard an idiot say that incentives for the film industry cost us!! Investing a dollar brings us back about 6.00 USD. Damn good investment, I'd say!

The more incentives for films and T.V in Florida... Promotes free advertising for tourism for years and years to come... It's a win win.

Film and TV production is going where the incentives are. Please don't let Los Angeles' loss be another state's gain. We have talent and great locations in Florida. Let's bring work to our state to benefit residents and communities.

I voted for Rick Scott because he said he would help bring more productions like Dolphin Tale here. Governor this bill will bring more productions here and put us back to work. Please add it to the calendar
