Quote the text, not the summary. A Georgia House resolution formally commends former state Representative Micah Gravley for his decade of public service representing Paulding and Douglas counties. ### Plain-language summary This is a commendation resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, a type of measure that honors a specific person rather than changing any law. It recognizes Micah Gravley, who represented House District 67 in the Georgia General Assembly from 2012 to 2022, covering Paulding and Douglas counties. The resolution lists his legislative leadership roles, including Deputy Whip and Vice Chairman of the House Majority Caucus, along with awards he received during his time in office. It also notes his work outside the legislature, including graduating from the Hiram Police Department's Citizen's Police Academy and serving on the Paulding Wellstar Hospital Regional Health Board. The resolution directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy for Gravley, but it does not create, amend, or repeal any Georgia statute. ### What it does - Formally recognizes and commends Micah Gravley for his service as State Representative for House District 67 from 2012 to 2022. - Lists his legislative leadership positions, including Deputy Whip, Vice Chairman of the House Majority Caucus, and Vice Chairman of the Code Revision Committee. - Notes his civic activities outside the legislature, including his role on the Paulding Wellstar Hospital Regional Health Board. - Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare and distribute a copy of the resolution to Gravley. ### Who it affects The resolution directly names and honors Micah Gravley, a former Georgia House member from Paulding and Douglas counties.
