In plain language
This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia House of Representatives. It does not change any law. It recognizes the students who took part in the Georgia Legislative Internship Program during the 2025 regular session, a long-running partnership between the General Assembly and Georgia colleges that places students with House committees and legislative leaders. The resolution names the participating colleges, including the University of Georgia, Georgia State University, Georgia Southern University, Georgia Institute of Technology, and several others, and lists each intern by name. It formally thanks them for their service and wishes them success in the future. The Clerk of the House is directed to prepare copies of the resolution for distribution to each named intern.
