En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a ceremonial honor from the Georgia Senate rather than a change to state law. It commends Firefighter Daniel Norton of Paulding County Fire & Rescue for his service and achievements, including winning gold and becoming World Heavyweight Champion at the World Police and Fire Olympics. The resolution also credits Norton with training firefighters across Georgia and Florida as a FLAMES instructor, developing a preparatory academy for Paulding County recruits, organizing the department's first awards banquet, and earning an aerial operator certification. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for Norton, but it creates no new requirements, funding, or legal changes.
