State Representative Mike Cameron expressed his support for Governor Brian Kemp's proposal to provide a $1 billion income tax refund to Georgia residents. The announcement was made at the Capitol, where Rep. Cameron stood alongside Gov. Kemp, House Speaker Jon Burns, and other legislators.

"Governor Kemp’s announcement today serves as a strong testament to our commitment to the hardworking people of Georgia, and I commend him, House Speaker Jon Burns and my fellow Republican colleagues for prioritizing the needs of Georgia taxpayers," stated Rep. Cameron. "This initiative would put more than $1 billion directly back into the hands of our citizens, reinforcing our belief that government should not hold onto more of your money than necessary."

Rep. Cameron highlighted Gov. Kemp's track record since taking office in 2019, noting that he has implemented over $6.6 billion in tax cuts and refunds. "I am proud to support fiscally conservative policies that empower families across our state and continue to drive our economy forward," added Rep. Cameron.

The proposed refund will allow individuals to receive up to $250, heads of households up to $375, and married couples filing jointly up to $500 based on their 2023 earnings.
