GA General assembly suspends gas tax for 60 days

Share
Rate

Pierce County motorists should soon see relief at the pump after the Georgia General Assembly passed a temporary suspension of the state’s gas tax.

The 60-day suspension of the state excise tax would save drivers just over 33 cents a gallon for gasoline and 37 cents a gallon for diesel.

It will take a while for the relief to show up at the pump since the state tax is levied on the distributor and not individual gas stations.
