En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It recognizes Cohen's of Alma, a retail store in Alma, Georgia, on the occasion of its 100th anniversary, tracing its history from its founding by Nathan Cohen in 1924 through generations of the Cohen family running the business. The resolution recounts the store's history, including its founding after Nathan Cohen immigrated to the United States in 1913, its expansions in 1967 and after 1997, and its role in the Alma-Bacon County community. It formally commends the Cohen family for a century of service and directs the Clerk of the House to provide a copy of the resolution to Cohen's of Alma for distribution.
