In plain language
This resolution honors Brandon L. Beach, a former Georgia state senator who now serves as United States Treasurer, by dedicating a specific segment of Georgia road to him. The resolution recounts his career, including two decades representing District 21 in the Georgia Senate, his leadership of the Senate Transportation Committee and the Senate Economic Development and Tourism Committee, and his work with regional transportation and development authorities before his appointment as U.S. Treasurer. The operative part of the resolution designates the portion of State Route 9 between Old Milton Parkway and Mayfield Road in Fulton County as the United States Treasurer Brandon L. Beach Highway. It directs the Georgia Department of Transportation to put up and maintain signs marking the dedication, and directs the Secretary of the Senate to send copies of the resolution to Beach and to the Department of Transportation.
What the bill does

- Directs the Georgia Department of Transportation to erect and maintain signs marking the highway dedication.
- Directs the Secretary of the Senate to distribute copies of the resolution to Brandon L. Beach and the Department of Transportation.

Who it affects
This mainly affects the Georgia Department of Transportation, which must install and maintain new road signage, and drivers on that stretch of State Route 9 in Fulton County who will see the new highway name. It is a ceremonial honor for Brandon L. Beach.
Why it matters
The practical effect is limited to naming a road segment and posting new signs; it does not change traffic laws, funding, or how the road functions. Its significance is symbolic, recognizing a Georgian's public service career and current federal position.
