Tax
The Georgia Chamber supports tax policy that is balanced and draws revenue from a broad base without discouraging economic development or relying unfairly on business contributions. We believe that a stable, predictable and competitively-neutral revenue system will encourage economic growth and is critical to Georgia’s ability to attract new investment and expand existing industry.

Council on Tax Reform a Timely, Necessary Step
Submitted by Eric Tanenblatt, Chair, Georgia Chamber of Commerce Tax Committee, and Senior Managing Director, McKenna, Long & Aldridge
Last week, legislative leaders introduced a bill that would create the 2010 Special Council on Tax Reform and Fairness for Georgians - a committee comprised of government leaders, business representatives, and three of the state's leading economists. Should the bill pass, this group will be charged with conducting a thorough review of Georgia's current tax and revenue structure and making recommendations in time for the 2011 legislative session.
