BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Gov. Bobby Jindal says he wants to extend tax credit programs that have helped expand the movie, video game and music industries in Louisiana.
Some of the tax credits would expire this year. The governor said Monday he’ll back legislation this spring that would keep the credits in effect and maintain an incentive for those industries to work in Louisiana.
Extension of the tax credits would mean a drop of $8 million in state revenue, which Jindal said will be accounted for in his budget plans.—-Contact The Daily Reveille news staff at [email protected]
