The Georgia Senate on Thursday passed House Bill 111, which would lower the state’s income tax rate, and House Bill 112, which would give Georgians one-time income tax rebates between $250 and $500.
Georgia Democrats supported the tax credit but pushed back on the tax rate cut, saying the benefits would go to the richest taxpayers and sap the state of revenue to pay for needed services.

The bill aimed at limiting large jury awards in civil lawsuits has been years in the making. Kemp has used all of his political power to pass it.
