En lenguaje claro
This resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives honors Officer Brantley Worley, who serves as Captain of the McCaysville Police Department and also as a member of Pickens County Fire and Rescue. It describes how he was shot in the back of the head on September 12, 2025 while on duty, suffering a fractured C1 vertebrae, a broken nose, and a brain bleed. The resolution does not change any Georgia law. It formally commends Worley's courage and dedication and directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for him. It is a symbolic tribute rather than a piece of regulatory legislation.
