Governor Nathan Deal flew into Macon Monday to sign the state's budget into law.

House Bill 76 breaks down the funding for next year's $40 billion budget. Deal says this will keep Georgia moving forward in education, public safety, economic development, health care, and other key areas.

“Our decisions on what to fund each year carry a great deal of weight,” Deal said. “I commend the General Assembly for working with me to produce a balanced budget that reflects the needs of our agencies and the people of this great state."
