That was a temp punt back to the legislature, that wasn't in session at the time. Was kinda brilliant, he reinstated the tax break, then left office before the legislature came back in session to deal with it.

It had to be reinstated, the bill was in committee up to last minute, along with many others. They run till midnight on last day.

Seems to have died more by neglect than malice. Unlike last year no one is loudly claiming credit. I would imagine Delta will quietly and politely fire some shots (new routes not in ATL?) and lawmakers will reconsider poking the states largest employer in the eye.
Uhhh ok. Seeing as I’m kinda dense. Does this mean Delta got the reduced tax for awhile but it was reinstated later? Or is Delta still getting the tax break?
