Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp and Republican legislative leaders want to issue another round of income tax rebates, thanks to state financial reserves that continue to rise.

The leaders announced a proposal Tuesday to give refunds of up to $250 to single filers, up to $375 to single adults who head a household with dependents and refunds of up to $500 to married couples filing jointly.
