Lt. Governor Burt Jones Lauds Signing of Historic Tax Cuts

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: April 18, 2024

ATLANTA | Today, Lt. Governor Burt Jones issued a statement on the signing of House Bill 1015, legislation reducing Georgia taxes on personal and business income.

"I have long been a proponent of eliminating our state income tax, and I am glad to see us taking more steps in that direction," said Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones. "The signing of this legislation provides much-needed tax relief at a time when families and businesses continue to confront the burden of rising costs and skyrocketing inflation that those in DC have placed on them. I commend Governor Kemp for his willingness to cut taxes, and I look forward to working with the Governor and the General Assembly to eventually eliminate the state income tax in Georgia."
