This move aims to provide relief to families and combat what Kemp refers to as the\u2063 &#8220;disastrous effects of Bidenomics.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In\u200b Georgia, the gas tax stands at 31.2 \u2062cents per gallon \u2062for gas and\u200b 35 cents per gallon for diesel fuel. Kemp&#8217;s\u200c decision \u200cto continue the suspension \u200cof the gas \u200ctax until November\u200d 29 at 11:59 p.m. is a testament to the responsible \u200dbudgeting approach \u2064taken by the state.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Thanks\u2062 to our responsible approach to budgeting, we&#8217;re\u2063 able to deliver relief to families\u200c fighting through the disastrous effects of Bidenomics,&#8221; Kemp proudly stated. &#8220;I&#8217;m proud this action has helped \u200dkeep millions of dollars in hardworking Georgians&#8217;\u200b pockets and look\u200d forward to \u200bcontinuing to see that impact\u2064 with the Thanksgiving holiday\u200b approaching.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kemp also urges the state legislature to take\u200b further \u200baction on the gas tax, as they prepare for\u200c a \u2063special session to pass new legislative maps.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m also grateful \u2063for the partnership of the General Assembly as it prepares to enter a special session where legislators will be \u2064called on to ratify \u2064this\u2062 measure,&#8221; Kemp expressed.<\/p>\n<p>Republican state House Speaker Jon Burns\u200c has shown his support for\u200d the governor&#8217;s actions \u200band \u200bwillingness to collaborate\u2064 on policies that have made Georgia the envy of the nation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I applaud Governor Kemp&#8217;s commitment to providing relief from high prices at the pump\u200c for Georgia families \u2063and businesses,&#8221; Burns stated. &#8220;The General Assembly will continue to work \u200bwith Governor\u2063 Kemp to maintain \u200cthe conservative fiscal policies that have made Georgia the envy of the nation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to the American Automobile Association, the average price of gas in the United\u200b States is $3.401 \u200bper gallon. However,\u200c in\u2062 Georgia, the average price is significantly lower at $2.883 per gallon.

Since mid-October,\u200d Georgia has been experiencing a significant\u2063 gas shortage, leading to inflated prices and long queues at gas stations. Kemp&#8217;s decision to extend the tax suspension until Thanksgiving\u2063 comes as a welcome relief for residents who were bracing themselves for a holiday season with\u200b limited\u2064 access to fuel.<\/p>\n<p>The gas shortage in Georgia can be largely attributed to\u200d President Biden&#8217;s energy\u200b policies, which prioritize renewable energy sources over traditional fossil fuels. The discrimination against the oil industry has led to a decrease in domestic\u2064 production and an increase in dependency on foreign oil. As a result, gas prices have\u200d skyrocketed, impacting\u2063 everyday Americans who rely on their vehicles for commuting, leisure, and traveling.<\/p>\n<p>Governor Kemp&#8217;s decision to extend the gas tax suspension is a practical solution to alleviate the burden on Georgian families during the busy holiday season. By temporarily eliminating the tax, families can have some reprieve from the high fuel \u2062costs, allowing them to participate\u2062 in holiday gatherings, visit loved \u2062ones, and embark on Thanksgiving trips \u2062without the worry\u200c of exorbitant gas prices.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the extension of the gas tax suspension sends a strong message to the Biden administration about the need to reassess their\u200d energy\u2063 policies.\u2062 Kemp highlights the disastrous effects these policies have \u2063had on Georgia&#8217;s economy and the livelihoods\u200d of its residents. It serves as a reminder that without a balanced approach to energy production, the consequences can be severe for both consumers and the sectors that depend on affordable fuel.<\/p>\n<p>Since the initial suspension of the gas tax in mid-October, many Georgians have expressed gratitude for Governor Kemp&#8217;s initiative. The temporary reprieve has allowed them to manage their household budgets more \u200beffectively, diverting funds \u2064to other essential expenses during this challenging time. The extension of the tax suspension until Thanksgiving further solidifies Kemp&#8217;s commitment to the well-being and \u200cprosperity of Georgia&#8217;s citizens.<\/p>\n<p>However, while the gas tax\u200b suspension provides immediate relief, it is crucial to address the underlying issues\u200d surrounding the gas shortage\u200b in Georgia. The administration must work toward <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-makes-border-history-with-highest-illegal-crossing-attempts-in-august-ever-recorded\/\" title=\"Biden sets record for highest-ever illegal border crossing attempts in August.\">finding long-term\u200b solutions<\/a> to ensure the state&#8217;s energy security and reduce dependency on foreign\u200d oil. By investing in domestic production and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/kemp-extends-gas-tax-suspension-to-fight-disastrous-effects-of-bidenomics\/\" title=\"Kemp extends gas tax suspension to fight 'disastrous effects of Bidenomics'\">exploring alternative energy sources<\/a>, Georgia \u2064can build a more robust and resilient energy \u2062infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>In \u200dconclusion, Governor\u200d Brian Kemp&#8217;s extension of the gas\u2063 tax suspension in\u2063 Georgia brings much-needed relief to residents during the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday. It serves as a \u2064temporary solution to combat the disastrous effects of President\u2064 Biden&#8217;s energy policies, which have resulted in a gas shortage and inflated prices. This decision underscores the governor&#8217;s commitment to the well-being of Georgian families and\u200d sends a message to reassess \u200benergy policies at the federal level. \u2064However, it is essential to address the root causes of the gas shortage and work\u2062 towards <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/u-s-intel-warns-china-is-advancing-military-power-sharing-propaganda\/\" title=\"U.S. Intel warns China is advancing military power, sharing propaganda\">long-term solutions<\/a> that prioritize energy security and independence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gov.
