Jeffrey Eugene Mullis (December 27, 1959) is an American politician and a former member of the Georgia State Senate. A member of the Republican Party, he represented the 53rd district from 2001 to 2023[1] after an unsuccessful run for state senator in 1998.

In 2021, Mullis sponsored election reform legislation in Georgia. The bill would end no-excuse absentee voting and restrict absentee voting to those who are over 75, have a physical disability, or are out of town.[6] [7] He sponsored the legislation during the COVID-19 pandemic and shortly after the 2020 elections, when Democratic candidates won one of Georgia's U.S. Senate seats as well as Georgia's electoral college votes in the presidential election.
Mullis has served in the 146th, 147th, 148th and 149th Georgia General Assemblies.
