Lawmakers in Georgia removed a $38 million tax exemption for jet fuel from tax-cut legislation on Thursday in a move that will punish Atlanta-based Delta Air Lines.
Republicans vowed to remove the exemption after the airline cut ties with the National Rifle Association (NRA).
Georgia's Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle (R), who is also running for governor, had threatened to kill any tax legislation that benefits Delta after the company's decision to end a discount program for NRA members.
[...] "I will kill any tax legislation that benefits @Delta unless the company changes its position and fully reinstates its relationship with @NRA," Angle tweeted earlier this week.

It's not 500,000 new members. It's MILLIONS. That's what so many people are saying. On Facebook. On Twitter. All over our Social Media. And on our conservative blogs. The Fake News media won't tell you. The NRA won't tell you. But their membership is picking up AMAZINGLY. ilovemyfreedom.org/millions-rush-join-nra-anti-gun-lectures-liberal-media [ilovemyfreedom.org]
Believe me, I don't care. I'm not afraid of our NRA. So many of our Republican politicians are afraid of the NRA, of our Second Amendment folks. Not me, what do I need from the NRA? They were a big help to my campaign. $30 million. They do great work protecting our Gun Rights. And I had a terrific meeting with them. But believe me, I'm going to do the right thing on school safety. Because children are VERY SPECIAL. They get killed, it takes awhile to replace them. Depending on how old they were. Let me tell you, our politicians need to worry about the ones that are almost legal. Little Marco, did you see what happened to him? He got a MAJOR SMACKDOWN from some teenagers, from some of the Parkland students. That, very soon, will be old enough to vote. Old enough to run for office. Not for the Senate, not for President. But a lot of offices.
