This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate, not a change to state law. It recognizes Anita Reynolds Howard, district attorney for the Macon Judicial Circuit covering Bibb, Crawford, and Peach counties, for winning the 2025 Career Women's Network Women of Achievement Award.

It directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for her.
