Dear Film Friends,
The budget bill was not voted on the House floor today.
The vote is now expected tomorrow morning.
We are planning to be at the roundhouse again tomorrow morning for lobbying from 8am-9am, and the house vote at 10am.
If you were not able to make it today, we still have tomorrow.
It is very important that we reach out via phone and/or email the the House of Representatives, and there is still time.
The word from the house is that we are not getting our message out, and sending mixed messages.
The word is also that they are not hearing from local business.
Our message is this:
Please approve the budget bill with a $60 million limit on the film credit.
Do not vote yes on the budget bill in its current state with a $45 million limit.
Movies make money for New Mexico.
Please support jobs and local business.
Thank you to all for your support.
