En lenguaje claro
This is a commendation resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It recognizes Mrs. Barberette Russell, an Atlanta native with degrees from Mercer University and Strayer University, for more than fifteen years working in early childhood education and more than two decades of community service in Georgia, including voter registration drives, feeding the homeless, and supporting seniors at Crestview Nursing Home. The resolution also highlights her role as caregiver for her brother, who has Down syndrome, and her work with disability advocacy groups. It directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for presentation to Mrs. Russell.
