En lenguaje claro
This is a procedural resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives. It does not change any law. Instead it sets up a routine step in the start of a legislative session: appointing a joint committee to notify the Governor that the General Assembly has convened and is ready to conduct business. The committee would have fourteen members total, seven chosen by the Speaker of the House from among House members and seven chosen by the President of the Senate from among Senate members. Their job is limited to delivering this formal notice to the Governor.
