En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It honors Mary D'Souza Sequeira, an Indian athlete who competed for India in track and field at the 1952 Helsinki Olympics as part of the first female contingent to represent India there, and who also played field hockey. The resolution recounts her medals at the 1951 and 1954 Asian Games and her 2013 Dhyan Chand Award from the Government of India for lifetime achievement in sport. The House formally commends her for her athletic achievements and wishes her continued health and happiness, and directs the Clerk of the House to send her a copy of the resolution.
