HR760: HR760 House interns; 2025 regular session of the General Assembly of Georgia; commend

This resolution honors the participants in the Georgia Legislative Internship Program, one of the nation's oldest state legislative internship programs, for their service during the 2025 session. The program places college students from ten Georgia colleges and universities, including the University of Georgia, Georgia State University, Georgia Tech, and Kennesaw State University, into positions with House standing committees and legislative leaders. The resolution lists each intern by name and states that the House of Representatives commends them for their performance and wishes them success in future pursuits. It also directs the Clerk of the House to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to each named intern. The resolution has no regulatory effect and does not change any Georgia law.
