En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia Senate rather than a change to state law. It praises the Georgia Academy of Audiology, an association of audiologists practicing throughout Georgia, for its work diagnosing and treating hearing loss and balance disorders and for educating the public on prevention. The resolution notes that these audiologists hold doctorates and specialized training, work in settings ranging from private practices and hospitals to schools and military institutions, and often belong to national professional groups as well. The Senate resolves to commend the organization for its service and directs the Secretary of the Senate to provide a copy of the resolution to the group. It creates no new legal requirements, funding, or penalties.
