En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia House of Representatives rather than a change to any law. It recounts the history of National Caribbean American Heritage Month, which began in 2000 and was formally recognized by Congress and President George W. Bush in 2006. The resolution then recognizes the Georgia Caribbean American Heritage Coalition Inc. for organizing annual events in Georgia to celebrate Caribbean American Heritage Month and for working with Caribbean American organizations across the state. The House resolves to commend the coalition for its efforts to promote unity and highlight Caribbean American contributions to Georgia communities, and directs the Clerk of the House to send the coalition an official copy of the resolution.
