VETO HB170 AND THE $5 HOTEL TAX
Today, Gov Nathan Deal of Georgia is expected to sign into law a bill that was passed at the 11th hour in the current session to help transportation. To raise the funds, our state elected official passed a bill to add a $5.00 tax to all guests who stay in a hotel/motel in Georgia. This tax is an addition to the State tax this is already being charged. Furthermore, this tax is for every night a person stays. This is completely unexpected and wrong. Georgia will lose millions in revenue because of it. Please call the Gov Office at 404-656-1776 and ask to speak with Gov Deal. If they say no, then tell the person that you are opposed to House Bill 170 and that you want the Gov to VETO the bill. This bill is not in Georgia's best interest. Please pass this along to everyone.
