Legislative Session
The legislative session in Georgia is constitutionally required to begin on the second Monday of January each year; this year, it began on January 12, 2026. The legislature in Georgia is a part-time legislature that serves the state for a 40-day period. Each year, the legislative session typically wraps up by the end of March; however, it has operated well into April and even May in the not-too-distant past. This year, the session's final day (Sine Die) will fall on April 02, 2026. The legislature's biggest hurdle is passing a balanced budget each year, which is also constitutionally required.
As your advocate in Georgia, GSCPA will continue to vigorously fight for your interests before legislative and regulatory bodies to ensure your voice is heard.
Status Update
The 2026 legislative session convened on January 12, 2026, is scheduled to Sine Die on April 02, 2026.
