First counter-proposal to gas tax plan revealed | www.ajc.com

The first proposal for changing how gasoline is taxed in Georgia will be introduced Thursday in the House.

House Bill 60, by Rep. Ed Setzler, R-Acworth, would eliminate the 4 percent sales tax on gasoline, create a lower, flatter state income tax and gradually raise the excise tax on fuel over the next eight years.

Efforts to reach Setzler late Wednesday were unsuccessful.
