In plain language

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate, not a change to state law. It recognizes June 15-21, 2025 as Greg Street Week in honor of DJ Greg Street, who has worked at Atlanta radio station WVEE-V103 FM for 30 years and has supported the careers of many major music artists. The resolution describes his career highlights, including his induction into the Georgia Radio Hall of Fame and the National Black Radio Hall of Fame, and his charitable work through his 'We Need to Read' Foundation, which gives scholarships to students in underserved areas. The Senate directs its Secretary to provide DJ Greg Street with an official copy of the resolution.
