Tax reform tied to Georgia treasury and Slaton push
Georgia faces a tax reform push at the current session led by Governor John M. Slaton. He warns lawmakers that any overlong appropriations may trigger his veto to protect the treasury while advocating broad tax reform to raise returns. The plan centers on equalizing tax returns statewide, with other ideas like taxing life insurance cash surrender values discussed. House Speaker Burwell and Senate President Anderson back reform and aim to move the appropriations bill quickly before potential vetoes or an extra session.
