NFIB State Director Hunter Loggins says Georgia’s small business owners are urging a House Ways and Means subcommittee to pass House Bill 808.

The legislation would increase the threshold for paying Georgia’s tangible personal property tax.

“This is an onerous tax that needs to go away,” Loggins said. “Small business owners already pay sale taxes on equipment, desks, and other property. The tangible personal property tax means they’re paying taxes on the same items year after year after year. That’s not fair, and it needs to stop.”
