En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia Senate rather than a change to state law. It recounts the founding of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc. in 1922 in Indianapolis by seven educators, its incorporation in 1929, and its growth to more than 500 international chapters and over 100,000 members. The Senate formally designates March 16, 2026, as Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Day on the Hill, recognizing the organization's work in education, service, and leadership development in Georgia. The resolution directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy for distribution to the sorority. It creates no new rules, funding, or penalties.
