Hello friends in, and of, Birmingham’s creative community!
We want to thank everyone who called, emailed, advocated through social media, and otherwise made your voices heard in Montgomery regarding HB554, the proposed legislation to repeal Alabama’s film incentives.
We were heard. But we can’t rest.
A threat of repeal should remind us that we can never take advocacy to, and education of, our legislators for granted. It’s incumbent upon us to communicate with our elected officials regularly, not just in moments of crisis. We’ll share more about that in the future. For now, congratulations on the victory and, again, know that we appreciate your participation in the democratic process!
