Urgent Legislative Alert from LFEA President - Veto Requested

The following is being sent on behalf of the Louisiana Film & Entertainment Association (LFEA).

LFEA Red Alert:
A Letter from the LFEA Board of Directors

Dear LFEA Members and Film Industry Supporters: 

On Thursday, in the last 2 minutes of the legislative session, the Louisiana Legislature passed a bill that will severely damage (if not destroy) our growing film industry. The bill is unconstitutional, and LFEA plans to challenge it in court. First, though, we will be asking the governor to veto the legislation. 

Below is a link to the online petition to ask Governor Jindal to VETO HB 829. Please use the link below to sign the petition.

We ask that you sign this electronic petition and please send IMMEDIATELY to everyone you know whom is employed by, supports, or is positively impacted by the film industry in Louisiana! This is our best chance to stop this legislation, before it starts costing  jobs. #VETOHB829

In addition, if you are interested in sending a grassroots message directly to the governor you can use the link below.
