Georgia Industry In Action

The Georgia Industry Association is Georgia's recognized voice of industry! Since 1993, GIA has been the ONLY voice which represents ALL Georgia industry and ONLY Georgia industry in the public policy and regulatory arenas. GIA has earned strong credibility among legislators and public officials for its reasoned, well researched positions on behalf of Georgia's industries.

The Georgia Industry Association is proud to have a full-time professional lobbyist on staff. This means that our members are represented on a daily basis under the Golden Dome during the General Assembly and throughout the year. In session or out, you can count on GIA to be there representing YOUR COMPANY!

Consider GIA's Track Record...

• We've been the leader in the on-going drive to eliminate tax on energy used in manufacturing

• We're a staunch supporter of tort reform measures and a defender of Georgia's "Right to Work" law

• We support QuickStart funding to provide training for exisitng industries

• We're working hard to secure corporate income tax reductions

The Georgia Industry Association has also filed Amicus Curiae Briefs supporting industry interests involving workers compensation issues, future nuisance zoning, environmental issues and protection of trade secrets.

Furthermore, GIA is not just about Georgia! We are proud to form coalitions with allied organizations to advance manufacturing interests, conserve the manufacturer's financial resources and broaden industry's political base. In fact, the Georgia Industry Association is the exclusive state affiliate of the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM)!
