ATLANTA (AP) — Georgia's state taxes on gasoline and diesel will be suspended for another month after Gov.
The suspension of the taxes, at 31.2 cents per gallon of gasoline and 35 cents per gallon of diesel, had been scheduled to end next Thursday but will now run through at least Nov. 11.
Georgia's governor can suspend the collection of taxes during an emergency as long as lawmakers approve it the next time they meet.
That was the lowest price among the states and down 37 cents since Kemp suspended the taxes.
Pump prices also include a federal tax of 18.4 cents per gallon on gasoline and 24.4 cents per gallon on diesel.
