HR 436: Honoring Heroes Day; February 28, 2025; invaluable contributions of school bus drivers and school food service workers; recognize

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives rather than a law that changes any statute. It recognizes February 28, 2025 as Honoring Heroes Day, an event held at the Georgia State Capitol that brings together lawmakers and community members to celebrate school bus drivers and school food service workers. The resolution commends these workers for their daily commitment to student safety and well-being, and it directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare copies of the resolution for distribution to the event's sponsors and to Georgia's school bus drivers and food service workers. It does not create any new funding, program, or legal requirement.
