In plain language

This is a commendation resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a law that changes anyone's rights or duties.

The resolution also credits head coach Michele Heindl for leading the team's training. It directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare copies of the resolution for distribution to the four named swimmers. The resolution has no regulatory or funding effect; it is a formal statement of recognition passed by the House.
