Donald Trump Urges Congress To Pass Federal Film & TV Tax Incentive
According to Deadline, Donald Trump has urged Congress to pass the 'Motion Picture, Television, and Entertainment Revitalization Act' in a post on Truth Social. Trump highlighted a bipartisan group of lawmakers supporting the 20% tax incentive, including Senators Tim Scott, Adam Schiff, John Cornyn, and Raphael Warnock. He argued that other countries have 'emptied out' the U.S. industry through their own tax incentives and insisted that the industry must remain in America. The appeal was made as news networks were reporting on a nationwide ground stop of all U.S. flights.
