HB111 reduces the state income tax rate to 5.19% in 2025 and to 4.99% by 2027.
The Senate passed HB111 on March 20, 2025, by a vote of 30 to 23. We have assigned pluses to the yeas because the income tax is an immoral, anti-constitutional act of government-imposed theft that takes from people the wages they have rightfully earned. It turns citizens into slaves. A person’s property, including their income, belongs solely to them—not the state. The Bill of Rights and the 14th Amendment expressly affirm that “No State” shall unjustly “deprive any person” of “liberty, or property.” Georgia must reject tyrannical, big government by protecting the “pursuit of Happiness," particularly the right to enjoy the fruit of one’s own labor.
