Florida is a perfect place to film. Many actors who are very talented live here and would be able to work without having to leave the state. This bill is necessary to our economy.

Film TV and Media support creates not only jobs in the film industry...film, TV, and ancillary media promotes ancillary industries...hotels, rentals, food and beverage and Florida's most important industry Tourism; nationally and internationally. JOBS help BALANCE OUR BUDGET!!

One Dollar invested = $6.48 ROI. Wouldn't you guys do with your own investments.? That return never dropped below 5:50 anytime during the previous incentive packages.

This will bring not only work for our community of actors, it will also benefit our tourism industry, thus bringing much needed jobs in the hotel, travel, food, retail, marketing industry and much more. Please, Mr Scott, give this your utmost consideration so people's livelihood can be secured.

Its hard to make it as an entertainer in florida due to the low income this career provides. Please consider a raise in the minimum pay. Thank you

Florida's economy needs this bill passed. We not only lose revenue for the local economy, we also lose tax paying citizens who are moving in droves to Georgia and Louisiana.

My husband and I have been in the Florida film industry for over 30 years. We have seen a lot of change. The BIGGEST change is that production work will not gravitate to a state if there are not financial incentives. Currently, we have lost many big projects due to this situation. PLEASE support the many tens of thousands of people that the film industry helps to support in Florida.
Thank you
