General Assembly to announce RI movie studio

I agree with those who call the historic tax credit something well worth preserving. Meanwhile, legislative leaders are set to announce plans to bring "a major film production studio" to Rhode Island.

From the State House:

The news conference is scheduled today, Thursday, Feb. 7, at 2:15 p.m. in the House Lounge on the second floor of the State House.

 

Expected to participate in the news conference are Speaker Murphy (D-Dist. 26, West Warwick, Coventry and Warwick), President of the Senate Montalbano (D-Dist. 17, North Providence, Pawtucket, Lincoln), House Corporations Committee Chairman Brian Patrick Kennedy (D-Dist. 38, Hopkinton, Westerly), Senate Minority Whip Kevin A. Breene, (R-Dist. 34, West Greenwich, Charlestown, Exeter, Hopkinton, Richmond), Hopkinton Town Council President Vincenzo Cordone and Hal Katersky of Pacifica Ventures, LLC.
