HR 1619: Wright, Carolyn M.; receiving the 2026 Yellow Rose Nikki T. Randall Servant Leadership Award; commend

This resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives honors Carolyn M. Wright, a coach and educator with more than 40 years of experience in basketball, volleyball, and track. It recounts her 32 seasons at Central High School in Phenix City, Alabama, where her teams made multiple state tournament runs, her induction into two sports halls of fame, and her role helping over 200 athletes earn college scholarships. The resolution also explains the origin of the award, named for former state representative Nikki T. Randall, and notes it is given each year during Women's History Month by the Georgia Women's Legislative Caucus. The House resolves to congratulate Wright and directs the Clerk of the House to prepare a copy of the resolution for her.

• Formally congratulates and commends Carolyn M. Wright for receiving the 2026 Yellow Rose Nikki T. Randall Servant Leadership Award.
• Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare and distribute a copy of the resolution to Wright.
• Creates no new law, funding, or ongoing state obligation; it is a ceremonial statement of recognition.

The resolution directly names and honors Carolyn M. Wright. It has no regulatory or financial effect on other Georgians, though it references the Georgia Women's Legislative Caucus and the legacy of former Representative Nikki T. Randall.
