SR616: SR616 Fayette Chamber Day; recognize February 10, 2026

This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia Senate rather than a change to state law. It recognizes February 10, 2026, as Fayette Chamber Day at the Capitol, timed to a visit by participants in the Fayette Chamber of Commerce's Leadership Fayette program to the Georgia State Capitol. The resolution describes Leadership Fayette, a program started in 1980 that develops civic knowledge and leadership skills among people in Fayette County. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to Leadership Fayette. The resolution does not create any new requirement, funding, or penalty; it is an honorary recognition tied to the group's Capitol visit.
