SR762: SR762 Labay, Lana; recognize

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate, not a law that changes anyone's rights or obligations. It recognizes Lana Labay, who was sworn into the Morrow City Council as the Council Seat-Post 3 representative on January 13, 2026. The resolution describes her history of leadership, volunteerism, and community service in Morrow, Georgia, including that the Mayor of Morrow established 'Lana Labay and Alma Floyd Day' on February 14, 2024 to honor her volunteer work. The Senate resolves to commend her for her public service and directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for her.

This resolution directly names and honors Lana Labay, a Morrow City Council member. It has no regulatory effect on the public, businesses, or government agencies beyond the Senate's own administrative act of distributing the document.

The resolution carries symbolic rather than legal weight. It creates an official Senate record commending Labay's local government service and volunteer work but does not change any Georgia law, create funding, or impose any requirement on anyone.

• The whereas clauses recite Labay's swearing-in to the Morrow City Council and her history of volunteer leadership and community service.
• The first resolving clause has the Senate recognize and commend Lana Labay for her public service to Georgia.
