En lenguaje claro
This resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives honors the Georgia Minority Supplier Development Council (GMSDC) on its 50th anniversary. It recounts the organization's history, founded in 1975 as the Atlanta Regional Minority Purchasing Council by six corporations, and its growth into a network connecting more than 400 Georgia companies and government entities with about 1,400 small and minority business suppliers. The resolution notes the council's economic impact, including more than $11 billion in annual revenue among its partnerships and over $20 billion in broader economic activity, along with its role supporting jobs, business training, and its annual Minority Business Opportunity Week. It does not change any Georgia law; it formally commends the council and directs the Clerk of the House to send a copy of the resolution to the organization.
