Quote the text, not the summary. A Georgia House resolution commends Daniel Campos, a community organizer with Poder Latinx, for his voter registration, civic education, and youth mobilization work in Gwinnett County. ### Plain-language summary This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives honoring Daniel Campos, a first-generation college graduate and community organizer with Poder Latinx. The resolution recounts his personal history, including the loss of his infant son and the hardships his family faced without paid leave, and describes how that experience led him into advocacy for paid leave policies in Georgia. The resolution also details his civic engagement work: registering 258 new voters since 2023, partnering with 10 high schools in Gwinnett County on voter registration drives, leading citizenship information sessions, helping legal permanent residents with naturalization applications, training over 40 youth as public speakers, and organizing a field trip that brought 60 students and 6 teachers to the State Capitol. The House formally commends him for his contributions to Georgia's youth and directs the Clerk to provide him a copy of the resolution. It does not change any Georgia law. ### What it does - Formally commends Daniel Campos for his contributions to youth in Georgia through a House resolution. - Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare and distribute a copy of the resolution to Daniel Campos. - Creates no new law, funding, or regulatory change since it is a commendation resolution rather than a bill amending Georgia statutes. ### Who it affects The resolution directly names and honors Daniel Campos. It also references Poder Latinx, Gwinnett County high schools, Shiloh High School students and teachers, and partner organizations Asian American Advancing Justice-Atlanta and Mi Familia en Acción, though it imposes no obligations on them. ### Why it matters This resolution has no legal effect on Georgians; it does not change any law, create funding, or impose requirements. Its significance is symbolic, publicly recognizing one individual's community organizing and civic engagement work before the Georgia House of Representatives. ### Key provisions - The preamble (whereas clauses) recounts Daniel Campos's background, his advocacy for paid leave policies, and his civic engagement work with Poder Latinx. - The resolving clause formally commends Campos for his contributions to youth in Georgia. - A further resolving clause directs the Clerk of the House to make a copy available for distribution to Campos. ## Status - Status: Passed (2026-03-31) - Last action: House Read and Adopted (2026-03-31) - Sponsors: Marvin Lim, Karen Lupton, Jasmine Clark, Phil Olaleye - Official page: https://www.legis.ga.gov/legislation/74632 > The history, votes, and amendments (134 characters) are at https://georgiacommons.org/bills/2025-2026/hr2024.md?full=1
