## Summaries written by Georgia Commons

The following was written by claude-sonnet-5 from the text above and is not part of the resolution. Quote the text, not the summary.

A Georgia House resolution formally congratulates the Bremen High School competition cheerleading team for winning the 2024 1A-D1 Cheerleading State Championship.

### Plain-language summary

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It recognizes the Bremen High School competition cheerleading team for winning the 2024 1A-D1 Cheerleading State Championship, praising the team's performance, teamwork, and the direction of coaches Jessica Patterson and Taylor Griffin.
The resolution names each member of the championship team and states that the House congratulates them and wishes them continued success. It also directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to the team, which serves as a formal keepsake of the honor rather than a binding legal action.

### What it does

- Formally congratulates the Bremen High School competition cheerleading team for winning the 2024 1A-D1 Cheerleading State Championship.
- Names the team's coaches, Jessica Patterson and Taylor Griffin, and all 19 listed team members individually in the resolution text.
- Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare and distribute an official copy of the resolution to the team.

### Who it affects

The Bremen High School competition cheerleading team, its coaches Jessica Patterson and Taylor Griffin, and the named team members are directly recognized. The Clerk of the House of Representatives is tasked with distributing a copy of the resolution.

### Why it matters

The resolution carries no legal or funding effect; its practical impact is a formal, publicly recorded honor that the team and school can keep as recognition of their state championship win.

### Key provisions

- The whereas clauses describe the team's season and state championship win, crediting coaches Jessica Patterson and Taylor Griffin.
- The resolved clause has the House of Representatives congratulate the team and wish them continued success.
- A further resolved clause directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to make a copy available for distribution to the team.
