 The Joint Finance Committee                          will meet in Executive Session on Thursday, April 30,                          beginning at 11 am in Room 412 East of the State                          Capitol.  The Committee will be considering and                          voting on the improved film industry tax incentives                          package put forth by Rep.

 TODAY IS THE DAY to ensure                          that funding for the incentives is included in the                          2009-2011 state budget.  You can help make this                          happen by taking action RIGHT NOW.  If your                          legislator is a Joint Finance Committee member – the                          list is below – please CALL with this                          message:
