In plain language
This resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives creates a ceremonial recognition called Impact Georgia Day. It honors a group of individuals the House says have made a lasting impact on their communities and the state, including Grammy Award winning artist and actor Jasiel Amon Robinson (known as Yung Joc), television personality and recording artist Karlie Lewis (known as Karlie Redd), and motivational speaker and philanthropist Nehemiah Davis. The resolution states that these honorees represented Georgia globally as entertainers, entrepreneurs, and philanthropists despite facing adversity, and that their work has created opportunities for future generations. The House resolves to commend them and directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare copies of the resolution for distribution to the honorees. It does not change any Georgia law.
