6-7-07 - Gov. Perry Signs $22 Million Film Incentive Bill
AUSTIN – Gov. Rick Perry, joined by State Rep. Dawnna Dukes, Texas Motion Picture Alliance President Hector Garcia and actor Dennis Quaid, today signed House Bill 1634 which provides $22 million to help Texas attract jobs in television and film production.

"Today I am proud to sign a $22 million film incentive bill that will help reverse the export of Texas filmmaking talent, that will bring jobs and economic activity to our cities, and that will make the diverse and beautiful images of Texas more prominent in motion pictures," Perry said.

1-2-07 - Texas Update (Screen Magazine)
Just over a year ago, I left Chicago to join the Texas Film Commission. It’s been a lively 12 months and I’m grateful for the timing: Texas’ legislature convenes every other January, so I’ve had a year to work with my local and regional film commission colleagues on the issue at hand. Yes, “issue” as in singular, because there’s only one: financial incentives for Texas. Our newly formed industry advocacy group, the Texas Motion Picture Alliance (www.txmpa.org) is actively working towards bringing incentives to Texas before any further ground is lost.
