In plain language

This is a ceremonial resolution passed by the Georgia House of Representatives. It does not change any law. Instead, it formally congratulates Alethea Chapman, a community leader, entrepreneur, U.S. Army veteran, and educator with more than 20 years of teaching experience, for receiving the 2025 Yellow Rose Nikki T. Randall Servant Leader Award. The resolution recounts the award's namesake, former Representative Nikki T. Randall, and describes Chapman's volunteer work with groups such as the National Council of Negro Women, WomenHeart, and Real Educators of Toastmasters. It directs the Clerk of the House to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to Chapman as a keepsake of the honor.
