Summary

The Keep Georgia Forested Act amends the state income‑tax code to give forestry manufacturing businesses a $500 credit for each new full‑time employee they hire between 2026 and 2030. Credits are only available in counties that meet specific job‑creation thresholds and wage requirements, and they can be sold or transferred to other Georgia taxpayers. The measure also defines key terms and sets a two‑thirds legislative vote for any future changes.
