A RESOLUTION
Commending Georgia's lineworkers and recognizing April 13, 2026, as Georgia Lineworker
Appreciation Day at the state capitol; and for other purposes.
WHEREAS, the profession of a lineworker is steeped in personal, family, and professional
tradition; and
WHEREAS, lineworkers are often first responders during storms and other catastrophic
events, working to make the scene safe for other public safety heroes; and
WHEREAS, lineworkers work with thousands of volts of electricity high atop power lines
24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to keep electricity flowing; and
WHEREAS, lineworkers must often work under dangerous conditions far from their families
to construct and maintain the energy infrastructure of this state; and
WHEREAS, lineworkers put their lives on the line every day with little recognition from the
community regarding the danger of their work; and
WHEREAS, it is most fitting and proper that the lineworkers of Georgia be recognized for
their effective and dedicated service to the people of the State of Georgia.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES that
the members of this body commend Georgia's lineworkers for their efforts in keeping the
power on and protecting public safety and recognize April 13, 2026, as Georgia Lineworker
Appreciation Day at the state capitol.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Clerk of the House of Representatives is authorized
and directed to make appropriate copies of this resolution available for distribution to the
public and the press.
