This change will likely bring more jobs and economic growth to the state. Gavin Newsom, the outgoing governor, has proposed expanding the tax credit program to at least $1 billion.
This move is seen as a way to attract more film and TV productions to the state, which in turn will create more jobs and stimulate the local economy.
