# Ga. Const. Art. I, Sec. I, Para. XXV. Status of the citizen.

A constitution provision shown as in force is in force as printed in the volume. A court decision can make a printed provision unenforceable without changing the volume, and the volume does not record that.

The social status of a citizen shall never be the subject of legislation.
