Georgia's 2026 Legislative Session kickoff

from Political Breakfast from WABE · host WABE

On this edition of Political Breakfast, we're going into the first week of Georgia's legislative session -- which means strategists Brian Robinson, Tharon Johnson and host Lisa Rayam are keeping busy and keeping up with lawmakers' top priorities. In this economy, everyone wants to focus on "affordability." The Senate wants to start eliminating the state income tax by 2032. A proposal by Republican Lt. Gov. Burt Jones would get rid of income taxes for two-thirds of Georgians, and phase out the rest over six years. On the House side, GOP lawmakers want to slow the growth of Georgians' property taxes. Democrats ask: How are we going to pay for essential services? And who will ultimately benefit? Plus, Georgia Governor Brian Kemp prepares to deliver his last 'State of the State.'
