Last action February 21, 2025 · Senate Read and Adopted
A Senate resolution formally recognizes and commends Sam M. Bromberg, a retired Atlanta accountant and financial planner, for his decades-long career in public accounting and financial services.
In plain language
This resolution is a ceremonial honor from the Georgia Senate rather than a change to state law. It recognizes Sam M. Bromberg for his career in accounting and personal financial planning, tracing his path from earning an accounting degree at the University of Georgia through work at several accounting firms, co-founding two businesses (Bromberg & Cohen, PC and Nova Wealth Management Group, LLC), and eventually selling the latter to Buckingham Strategic Wealth. The resolution formally commends Bromberg for his service and wishes him success in future endeavors. It also directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to him. It creates no new requirements, penalties, or funding and does not amend any Georgia statute.
