En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia Senate rather than a change to state law. It notes that more than 2.5 million Georgians are under 18 and that the state's high school graduation rate rose from 67.4 percent in 2011 to 79.2 percent in 2016, framing children as one of Georgia's most valuable assets. The Senate resolves to celebrate the achievements and potential of Georgia's children and youth and to recognize March 18, 2026 as Georgia Children & Youth Day at the state capitol. It also encourages all Georgians to recognize and celebrate young people's achievements, and directs the Secretary of the Senate to distribute copies of the resolution to the public and the press.
