Azalea & MOMMA support MO Film!

Posted May 6, 2011

MOMMA (Missouri Motion Media Association) is asking for help in encouraging MO Governor Jay Nixon to continue to support the Missouri Film Industry and the Missouri Film Office.  As a member of MOMMA, Azalea encourages you to help out as well!  It will take a few moments of your time, but if you care about the great film work in Missouri, it’s worth it.  See below for details and be sure to take action before May 13th.

URGENT MESSAGE:
IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED

We need everyone with any connection to filmmaking to send a letter or an email to Missouri Governor Jay Nixon.  The House and Senate have approved a budget which continues funding for the Missouri Film Office.   Now the budget will go to the governor to be signed into law.
It is ESSENTIAL that the governor hear from all as many people as possible
before May 13!

We do not want form letters.  Start out with one or two sentences telling the governor how you are connected to the film community (even if you just love to watch locally produced films).  Then urge the governor to support the Missouri film industry and to sign House Bill 7.  Tell him that it is very important to you that he NOT veto the legislation or withhold the funds approved by the legislature.  We can save the Missouri Film Office, but it’s now or never.

PLEASE EMAIL AND SEND A COPY OF YOUR LETTER TO THE GOVERNOR’S OFFICE VIA MAIL – PLEASE DO BOTH!
