It states that many members of the group have served or currently serve at the Georgia Capitol as aides, interns, staff, or even as members of the General Assembly, and that many will visit the capitol on the recognized day. It directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to make copies available to the public and press, but it does not change any Georgia law. ### What it does - Formally recognizes March 9, 2026, as Young Democrats of Georgia Day at the state capitol. - States the House's appreciation for the Young Democrats of Georgia and their involvement in state politics. - Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare and distribute copies of the resolution to the public and press. ### Who it affects The resolution primarily affects the Young Democrats of Georgia, an organization for people ages 14 to 40 who support the Democratic Party, and the Clerk of the House of Representatives, who is directed to distribute copies of the resolution. ### Why it matters The resolution carries no legal effect and changes no Georgia law.
