The Georgia Budget and Policy Institute (GBPI) Georgia Budget Primer 2013 provides a snapshot of Georgia’s finances and the trends that must be reversed to put the state on sound economic footing. In developing a solid financial plan for Georgia, it is important for policymakers to set priorities that meet the needs of Georgians and make the necessary investments to attract business, create jobs, and grow the economy. A balanced approach that includes strategic investments in areas that make Georgia competitive is essential for the state’s future. Public education, transportation, public safety, and quality of life are key areas that we must not sacrifice.

Georgia's 2027 Budget Primer

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.
