En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate, not a law that changes anyone's rights or duties. It marks the 30th anniversary of the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games hosted in Atlanta, noting how the Games spurred investment in infrastructure, transportation, housing, and public spaces in Downtown Atlanta. The resolution also honors the Atlanta Downtown Improvement District, an organization created after the Games to handle public safety, sanitation, beautification, and business support downtown. The Senate directs its Secretary to distribute copies of the resolution to the public and the press, which is a standard closing step for ceremonial resolutions.
