The $2.2 trillion package is a much-needed lifeline for the shuttered movie business.
As movie theaters across the United States remain dark, movie productions stay shuttered and thousands find themselves out of work for the near future, the Motion Picture Association welcomed the passage of federal aid on Friday, hoping to bring urgently needed relief to the industry.
"The ongoing COVID-19 crisis is a threat to the entire global economy, including creative industries. In the United States alone, the film, television, and streaming industry supports 2.5 million jobs and 93,000 small businesses – 87 percent of which employ fewer than 10 people," Rivkin noted.
