In plain language

This is a commendation resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It recognizes Deputy Nicholas Glass, a local law enforcement officer, for facing a violent, life-threatening attack while on duty on October 25, 2025, alongside Deputy Anthony Pacifico. The resolution praises Glass for his integrity, dedication, leadership, and public service, and states that the House commends his care, courage, sympathy, and selfless dedication. It directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to Glass. The resolution has no regulatory effect and does not alter any Georgia statute.
