En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate rather than a bill that changes state law. It recognizes Kenny Stone for his leadership as chairman of the Board of Trustees at East Georgia Regional Medical Center (EGRMC) and congratulates the hospital on reaching 25 years of operation. The resolution describes EGRMC's growth under Stone's leadership, citing figures like serving over 300,000 patients annually, supporting more than $214 million in economic impact, and providing $100 million in charity and uncompensated care. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare copies of the resolution for distribution to Stone and the hospital. It does not create any new law, funding, or regulation.
