In plain language
This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia House of Representatives rather than a law that changes anyone's rights or duties. It praises Healthcare & Emergency Solutions, LLC (HCES), a company founded by Dr. Bruce A. James II, for its emergency response and healthcare consulting work across the country and its efforts to address healthcare disparities in rural Georgia communities. The resolution also highlights the company's community investments, including scholarships for secondary school students, support for the Emerging 100 of Atlanta, and participation in the Georgia Legislative Black Caucus Heritage Weekend. It directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to the company as a formal token of recognition.

- Recognizes founder Dr. Bruce A. James II for his leadership and contributions to healthcare access.
- Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare and distribute an official copy of the resolution to the company.
