HR644: HR644 Clark, Monesha; TrailBlazing Women in Georgia Day; March 20, 2025; recognize

Last action March 18, 2025 · House Read and Adopted

A Georgia House resolution commends Atlanta entrepreneur Monesha Clark and recognizes March 20, 2025, as TrailBlazing Women in Georgia Day.

In plain language

This is a ceremonial resolution passed by the Georgia House of Representatives. It does not change any law. Instead, it honors Monesha Clark, an Atlanta based event promoter, media personality, model, and entrepreneur known as "Ms. Atl Doll," for her work in media, business, and community life. The resolution recognizes March 20, 2025 as TrailBlazing Women in Georgia Day, a day meant to acknowledge the philanthropic, social, and cultural contributions of women in Georgia. It also directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for Clark as a keepsake.

What the bill does

  • Commends Monesha Clark by name for her public service and contributions to the state, as stated in the resolution's text.
  • Formally designates March 20, 2025, as TrailBlazing Women in Georgia Day in Georgia.
  • Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare and distribute an official copy of the resolution to Monesha Clark.
  • Creates no new statute, funding, penalty, or enforceable legal requirement, since it is a commendatory resolution rather than a bill amending Georgia law.

Who it affects

The resolution directly names and honors Monesha Clark. It has no regulatory or financial effect on other Georgians, businesses, or government agencies beyond the ceremonial designation of the day and the Clerk's administrative task of preparing a copy for her.

Why it matters

Because this is a commendatory resolution rather than a law, it has no practical day to day effect on Georgians generally. Its significance is symbolic: it publicly recognizes Clark's entrepreneurial and media work and marks a day honoring women's contributions in Georgia.

Key provisions

  • The preamble ('WHEREAS' clauses) describes Clark's background as an event promoter, media personality, model, entrepreneur, and founder of a lipstick and lashes company.

  • The preamble references her guidebook, HustleHer's Playbook: Guide for Boss Babes to Earn Extra Income, aimed at helping women build extra income.
  • The resolving clause formally commends Clark and designates March 20, 2025, as TrailBlazing Women in Georgia Day.
  • A final clause directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to make a copy of the resolution available to Clark.
