Senator Dominic Pileggi Introduces an Uncapped Film Tax Credit Bill!

Senator Pileggi tweeted today:

#PASenate Finance Cmte, chaired by @SenatorBrubaker, approved my SB1035 to #UncapPA Film Tax Credit. Video & info: http://finance.pasenategop.com/2013/10/02/senate-bills-703-704-1035/

So the good news is that Senate Bill 1035 has passed an initial committee vote, and will be voted on by the full Senate later.

Write to your state senator and encourage him or her to vote for SB 1035 to bring more jobs and movie money to Pennsylvania.

10/3 addition: While the bill has passed the Finance Committee, it still needs to be voted on by the Appropriations Committee before it can go to the Senate, and it has to pass in the Senate before it can move on to the House. The Finance Committee members who voted for uncapping the film tax credit were Blake, Browne, Greenleaf, Hutchinson, Smith, Tepletz, Wozniak, Brukabker & Scarnati and the senators voting against it were Vance and Eichelberger. If your Senator voted for it, drop him or her a note to say "Thanks!"
