In plain language

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives honoring Nakira Middleton, who works as a radio personality and assistant program director at 96.7 FM in South Georgia. The resolution recognizes her on-air work, her behind-the-scenes contributions to programming and mentoring, and her role in supporting local culture and community connections. The resolution does not change any Georgia law. It formally states the House's recognition of Middleton's career and directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for her.
