HB1590, SD1 Passed by MAT

Today, MAT passed its own version (SD1) of HB1590 (refundable film tax credit). Here it is: HB1590, SD1. While the basic intent of this bill is good (increase to refundable tax credit), the specific provisions in the other, more focused, more streamlined House draft of SB541 (SB541, HD1) are preferable.

Next stop for this bill: WAM (the money guys), chaired by the fellow below. Hearing will be scheduled sometime in the next week or two--prep your testimonies!

(And address your testimonies to him.)
