Pols call on Gov. Cuomo to support music industry in New York
Lobby for Tax Credit to Keep Music Industry from Leaving the City
State Sen. Marty Golden has raised his voice in support of a measure that would allow the music industry in New York to benefit from a tax credit.
Golden joined a chorus of elected officials, including senators Rich Funke and Joseph Griffo and assemblymembers Joseph R. Lentol, Joe Morelle, Robert Carroll, Victor Pichardo and John McDonald.
They all banded together with supporters of New York is Music (NYIM) — a coalition of more than 200 music-related organizations — and videogame industry professionals from around the state who are urging Gov. Andrew Cuomo to join both houses in supporting bipartisan legislation that will create thousands of good jobs in the music production and videogame industries.
