En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate, not a change to state law. It praises the Boy Scouts of America in Georgia for its work training youth in citizenship, character, and self-reliance, and notes the organization has over 40,000 scouts, more than 3,500 adult leaders, and over 600 units statewide. The resolution formally recognizes March 9, 2026 as Scouts Day at the Capitol, an annual event where scouts visit the Georgia State Senate to learn about government and talk with their senators. It encourages elected officials to take part in the day's events, and directs the Secretary of the Senate to make copies of the resolution available to the public and press.
