ATLANTA AP – Thursday marks the make-or-break point for pending bills in the Georgia legislature, and several high-profile tax proposals top the list of measures that are on the line.

During what is typically one of the Legislature’s most hectic days, House lawmakers are set to consider bills that would give companies a $500 credit toward the unemployment insurance tax and a $2,400 income tax credit for each new employee they hire. It’s part of a package pushed by Georgia Republicans in response to the federal stimulus.
