Out of control spending!
The Governor has proposed a budget this year which is frankly out of control.
Let’s examine the past decade. From FY16 to FY26 the budget has gone from $23 billion to $38 billion. That’s a 64% increase over 10 years despite only a 9% increase in population over that time. To anyone who says “but inflation,” if we had grown the budget with inflation over the past decade we would be at $31 billion rather than $38 billion. It’s increased the per person tax burden by more than $1100. The people are being forced to fund a government which can’t keep its spending under control. See the Georgia Freedom Caucus statement below:
That “more to come” line is very important. While President Trump is calling for cuts, Governor Kemp is calling for increases. That is not conservative and someone must speak up about it. The Georgia Freedom Caucus is that entity which will speak up about it.
