In plain language
This is a commendation resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, a formal statement honoring an individual rather than a change to state law. It recognizes Blaise Aristide Ndewa, a sophomore at Georgia Gwinnett College studying political science, for his work as one of 16 students in the inaugural Georgia Gwinnett College Internship Program at the Georgia State Capitol. The resolution describes his internship experience working with the Working Families Caucus on legislative research and constituent services, and notes his career aspirations in sports management and nonprofit work. It directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for him. It does not create, amend, or repeal any Georgia law.
