En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia House of Representatives recognizing the Snellville Youth Council (SYC), a program founded in 2016 by former Snellville Councilwoman Cristy Lenski. The council gives high school students a structured way to participate in city government, learn how public policy is made, and build skills like public speaking and project planning. The resolution highlights SYC's role in creating Unity Day, a student-led Juneteenth celebration, and names the council's current leadership, advisory board, and full roster of 2025-2026 members. It does not create any new law, program, or funding. The House simply resolves to recognize the council and directs the Clerk of the House to provide a copy of the resolution to the group.
