US EditionTEAMSTERS STATEMENT ON FEDERAL FILM TAX INCENTIVES
- The International Brotherhood of Teamsters issued a statement on May 14, 2025, urging passage of a federal film tax credit to restore union jobs in the U.S. Film industry.
- They highlighted that American studios increasingly outsource union jobs overseas, diminishing meaningful work in California and nationwide and harming American labor.
- The leaders of the Teamsters union's Motion Picture Division criticized American film and TV studios for prioritizing profits by frequently outsourcing union jobs, which weakens domestic crews.
- They highlighted that the union represents 1.3 million members across the U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico, and stated that if these studios cannot prioritize anything other than their financial gains and incentive plans, they will need to pursue alternative ways to bring this work back to the United States.
- The Teamsters called on elected officials to act swiftly to pass a budget bill supporting working families and pledged to remember who supported labor during this critical moment.
