Summary

Georgia House Bill 1192 of 2024 passed both chambers and proposed a two-year pause on new high-technology data center sales tax exemption certificates. The Governor vetoed it on 7 May 2024 (Veto 7), noting the legislature had extended the exemption through 2031 two years earlier. The exemption and its administration therefore continued unchanged.

What this does not establish

  • The veto date comes from the General Assembly legislation web service record (status "Veto V7" dated 2024-05-07); the veto message itself is undated in the text read.

Unresolved questions

None recorded.

Relationships

Supersession means a later instrument replaces the earlier legal effect. Repeal links identify the repeal instrument and the measure it ends. A later implementation or related letter is not treated as a replacement unless the record says so.
