To Governor Sonny Perdue and Members of the Georgia General Assembly:

In May of 2007, $142 million dollars that had been dedicated to tax relief by the General Assembly was placed into the Revenue Shortfall Reserve by executive action.  We, the taxpayers of Georgia, ask you to commit that these funds are not spent in the General Fund as is allowed by law (OCGA § 45-12-93), but pledge that the monies will be dedicated toward tax relief for Georgians.
