We need to bring the golden era back to florida. It will generate a lot of dollars in taxes to the state and help the education

The revenue streams generated by the film industry are a boon to small and large local businesses in the area where shoots take place- caterers, restaurants, hotels, hardware stores, cleaners, supermarkets, - you name it. Florida is an ideal location for productions, as it is right-to-work state. We haver a great chance to take away a large revenue stream from overtaxed California and New York. Florida needs jobs, and this industry will bring them in.

Documentary films enlighten, entertain, and educate the world. Shooting in a state that makes that affordable is just plain logical. Thank you.

When our state shut this program down, the work went to Atlanta, Alabama, Mississippi, and the Carolinas. We deserve the work. Please! Bob Carter

The entertainment industry can bring tremendous revenue and jobs to Florida, but without incentives, that revenue and those jobs are going to other states.

The entertainment industry brings jobs to people and brings revenue to all types of businesses helping our economy not to mention publicity for the areas being filmed. Help bring more tv and film productions to Florida please. It makes sense.
