HR 292: Blanco, Dr. Whitney N.; commend

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives honoring Dr. Whitney N. Blanco. It does not change any Georgia law; instead it formally recognizes her career achievements, including founding Acreage, a real estate analytics platform that uses artificial intelligence, machine learning, and geographic information systems (GIS) technology, and her work as a global coordinator for the World Health Organization on international health projects including a $1 billion Ebola response plan. The resolution ties her recognition to the second annual Tech Demo Day at the state capitol on March 13, 2025, hosted by Representative Dar'shun Kendrick, which celebrates Women's History Month under the theme 'Women In Artificial Intelligence.' The resolution directs the Clerk of the House to prepare a copy for distribution to Dr. Blanco.
