In plain language
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives rather than a law that changes any state statute. It formally recognizes May 15, 2025 as United Nations International Day for Families in the State of Georgia, noting that the United Nations created the observance in 1993 to raise awareness of issues affecting families worldwide. The resolution commends Dr. Jacqueline Mohair and Trinity Girls Network Corp., along with affiliated organizations, for their work promoting family unity, faith, and economic empowerment, including an annual Family Day Celebration at the United Nations Headquarters. It encourages Georgia citizens to observe the day through reflection, worship, prayer, and educational engagement, and directs the Clerk of the House to send copies of the resolution to Dr. Mohair, Trinity Girls Network Corp., and the United Nations.
