En lenguaje claro
This resolution does not change any Georgia law. It is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia Senate honoring the Georgia Minority Supplier Development Council (GMSDC) on the occasion of its 50th anniversary. The text recounts the organization's history, including its 1975 founding by six Georgia corporations, its network of more than 400 corporate and government members doing business with 1,400 small and minority suppliers, and the billions of dollars in economic activity tied to those partnerships. The Senate resolves to commend the council and directs the Secretary of the Senate to send it a copy of the resolution.
