On Thursday, the Georgia House of Representatives all agreed to pass a set of tax relief plans during an election year. This plan, pushed forward by Governor Brian Kemp, aims to make the state income tax cut from earlier this year even bigger. It proposes to lower the tax rate from 5.49% to 5.39%. Representative Lauren McDonald, from the Republican Party in Cumming, explained that this move would allow Georgia’s taxpayers to save around $1.1 billion this year. She discussed this before the vote took place.
