In February, Reason reported that Georgia lawmakers were considering modest changes to the state's film and television tax credits. So far, the state senate is backing off even those meager modifications.
For more than a decade, films or TV shows that filmed in Georgia and spent at least $500,000 in the state could qualify for a 20-percent tax credit; putting a "Made in Georgia" logo on the final product would boost the credit to 30 percent. Last year, the state certified $1.24 billion in production tax credits.
