En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia House of Representatives honoring Shaw Industries Group, a flooring manufacturer based in Bartow County. It does not change any Georgia law; instead it formally congratulates the company for being named the Cartersville-Bartow County Chamber of Commerce's 2024 Manufacturer of the Year. The resolution recounts the company's history in Northwest Georgia, its roughly $1 billion in investment in the state over five years, its solar array in Adairsville, its Shaw Family Health Center and Hiring Center in Cartersville, its employment of more than 2,700 people in Bartow County, and its recognition by Forbes as a Best-In-State Employer. It directs the Clerk of the House to send a copy of the resolution to the company.
