In talking about taxes, GBPI often says that Georgia is a low tax state. We cite data from the Census Bureau and Bureau of Economic Analysis that ranks Georgia between 37th and 43rd in several state and local revenue measures
Undocumented immigrants in Georgia annually contribute an estimated $407 million in state and local taxes.
The budget primer outlines the state budget for the year, recognizes substantial changes from the preceding year and provides a clear-eyed view on what lawmakers have prioritized for our state. This year, there will also be a focus on budget trends over the full eight years of Gov. Kemp’s tenure as we prepare for Georgia’s next leaders to take office.
Our budget primer is slated to be published the first day of the fiscal year, July 1. Join us for our virtual town hall to discuss our data, or request a physical copy of the primer to be sent to your address.
