Last action March 18, 2025 · House Read and Adopted

A Georgia House resolution honors media personality MiAsia Symone and designates March 20, 2025 as TrailBlazing Women in Georgia Day.

In plain language

This is a ceremonial resolution passed by the Georgia House of Representatives, not a law that changes anyone's rights or obligations. It commends MiAsia Symone, a radio, digital, and television personality who hosts Atlanta's Hot 107.9 and runs the MSL Media and Entertainment company and House of Heels boutique, for her public service and community work through her Hands on the Future Foundation. The resolution declares March 20, 2025 as TrailBlazing Women in Georgia Day, recognizing the contributions of women in Georgia generally. It directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to MiAsia Symone as a keepsake honoring the designation.

  • Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare and distribute a copy of the resolution to MiAsia Symone.
