The Fight Against Red Tape Continues in Georgia

Source: Foundation for Economic Education
by J Thomas Perdue

“Georgia is one of many states that has recently begun to look critically at its growing regulatory code. Lawmakers, business leaders and policy advocates have pointed out how regulations enacted by unelected bureaucrats in the executive branch have placed an unnecessary burden on the state’s workers and industries. The lack of legislative oversight in what functions as de facto lawmaking (this is especially true at the federal level) is another concern. This problem is compounded by the fact that Georgia’s code has grown unchecked for decades, resulting in a lack of transparency as well as redundant, outdated and even contradictory rules. But as the state’s code grows, so too does the list of other states that have taken steps to reduce their own.” (04/13/26)
