Senator Sykes of Oklahoma has introduced a Senate Bill that would apply rebates currently offered to movies and television to game developers. If this bill passes they will be able to get 15% of all operating costs back provided they spent a minimum of $500k and 50% of their staff are residents and employed in the state of Oklahoma.

The only downside I see so far is that he includes a provision that the rebate will only apply to games rated T and below. There is no equivolent provision on TV and movies.
That is something I need to talk to Senator Sykes about.
