En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It commemorates the 117th Founders Day of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), which was founded on February 12, 1909. The resolution recounts the roles of founders such as Mary White Ovington, W. E. B. Du Bois, Ida B. Wells-Barnett, and Mary Church Terrell, and praises the Georgia NAACP's history of work on civil rights, education, healthcare, employment, and housing access. The resolution formally states that the House commemorates the anniversary and recommits to advancing civil rights in Georgia. It also directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to the Georgia NAACP.
