SR 786: Kittila, Audrey; recognize

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate, not a change to state law. It recognizes Audrey Kittila, a Milton, Georgia resident who was crowned Miss Georgia in 2025 and named 3rd Runner-Up at the Miss America 2026 competition. The resolution highlights her work founding Education for All, a community service initiative aimed at reducing school dropout rates by expanding access to early literacy resources, as well as her musical training and other activities. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to Kittila as a formal keepsake of the honor.

• Highlights her founding of Education for All, a program aimed at reducing school dropout rates through early literacy access.
• Directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare and distribute an official copy of the resolution to Kittila.

The resolution directly names Audrey Kittila, a Milton, Georgia resident. It has no regulatory effect on any broader group, though it references the students across Georgia impacted by her Education for All community service initiative.

• The resolving clause recognizes and commends Audrey Kittila, Miss Georgia 2025, and wishes her continued success.
• A further resolved clause directs the Secretary of the Senate to make a copy available for distribution to Kittila.
