SB420 restricts the ability of certain foreign persons and entities to purchase, own, and convey real estate by nonresident aliens, particularly agricultural land and land near military bases.
The Georgia State House of Representatives passed SB420 on March 21, 2024 by a vote of 97 to 67. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because this is a great step toward preserving state sovereignty. Ultimately, allowing foreigners from countries that reject American values, such as Communist China, to purchase mass amounts of land is a sure way to lose national and state sovereignty. This also compromises national security and impedes on citizens’ rights.
