En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate, not a change to state law. It recognizes the Rotary Club of Madison County, chartered in 1990, for reaching a milestone of building 1,000 handicap access ramps through its volunteer-run Handicap Ramp Program, which began in 1995. The resolution commends the club for providing free accessibility ramps to elderly residents, veterans, and others facing health or financial hardship, work carried out by volunteers often partnering with local churches and civic groups. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to provide a copy of the resolution to the club as a formal record of recognition.
