“Did not vote (Excused) on Georgia SB 410, to repeal the state sales and use tax exemption for data center equipment”

The Georgia State Senate passed SB 410, which would repeal the state sales and use tax exemption for data center equipment. The bill was sponsored by 17 Republican senators, led by Sen. Matt Brass and including Sen. Chuck Hufstetler. The bill crossed to the House but never advanced past Second Readers, so the exemption survived the 2026 session. Outcome: Passed the Senate 32-21 by substitute on March 6, 2026 (2 not voting, 1 excused). The bill crossed to the House, where it advanced no further than House Second Readers; Georgia's data center sales tax exemption was left intact for the 2026 session. Recorded vote: Excused. Body: Georgia State Senate. Measure: GA-2026-SB410.
