En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a ceremonial honor passed by the Georgia Senate rather than a law that changes anyone's rights or duties. It recognizes Samuel L. Tillman of Decatur, Georgia, for his service in the United States Air Force during the 1960s, including the Vietnam War era, and for his more than 22 years as Chief of Staff to State Senator Emanuel Jones. The resolution also notes his work with the DeKalb County Board of Elections and alongside a Deputy Insurance Commissioner, and praises his integrity and family life. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to Tillman. It does not create any new law, funding, or program.
