Will New Traffic Report Spark Action At State Capitol?

Caption

In this photo from Sept. 8, 2017, heavy traffic on Interstate 75 moves slowly in Forrest Park, South of Atlanta.

The rules embedded in the new federal tax law could mean many Georgians will pay higher state income tax.  State legislators want to find a way to give that money back.  Will they succeed?  Also, a new report confirms what Atlantans already know—the city has some of the worst traffic in the world.  Does that add urgency to the new push in the legislature for expanding transit?  Plus, a spokesman for Casey Cagle has an interesting response to a second GOP gubernatorial candidate using Cagle’s likeness in a campaign ad.
