NextImg:Trump Says He’s Imposing 100% Tariff On Movies Made Outside United States

President Donald Trump on Monday vowed to impose a 100% tariff on films made outside of the United States.

“Our movie making business has been stolen from the United States of America, by other Countries, just like stealing ‘candy from a baby.’ California, with its weak and incompetent Governor, has been particularly hard hit! Therefore, in order to solve this long time, never ending problem, I will be imposing a 100% Tariff on any and all movies that are made outside of the United States,” the president shared in a Truth Social post.

This is not the first time Trump has promised a 100% tariff on films produced outside of the United States. In May, Trump said he had authorized administration officials “to immediately begin the process of instituting a 100% Tariff on any and all Movies coming into our Country that are produced in Foreign Lands.”

At the time, Trump said Hollywood was dying a “very fast death,” calling incentives from other countries to produce movies outside of the United States “a national security threat.” 

“Other Countries are offering all sorts of incentives to draw our filmmakers and studios away from the United States. Hollywood, and many other areas within the U.S.A., are being devastated,” Trump said in May. “WE WANT MOVIES MADE IN AMERICA, AGAIN!”

Shortly after his initial announcement, the Democratic mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bass, issued an executive order aimed at reducing bureaucratic hurdles and facilitating easier filming in the city.

“We are going to fight now,” Bass said at the time, as The Daily Wire previously reported. “While we push for the tax credits to be passed in Sacramento, we need to do what we can today to impact building in Los Angeles.”

“The City is taking bold action to support our legacy industry,” she continued. “Keeping entertainment production in L.A. means keeping good-paying jobs in L.A., and that’s what we are fighting for.”
