The Port of Savannah is one of Georgia's most important assets - responsible for 286,000 jobs, $52.6 billion in cargo, and $2.8 billion in state and local taxes each year. As shipping vessels grow larger, it is critical that the port be able to grow accordingly. The Georgia Chamber is proud to support the Port's request of Congress for $105 million, which would be used in conjunction with a 40% match from the state of Georgia to deepen the port and ensure its contributions to our state and region long into the future.
