En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It recognizes the Haiti National Football Team, known as Les Grenadiers, for qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup after a 52 year absence from the tournament. The resolution names Head Coach Sebastien Migne and lists the players and coaching staff by position. It also acknowledges Georgia's large Haitian-American community and the Georgia Haitian-American Chamber of Commerce Inc. for their support of the team. The resolution directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to make copies available for distribution to the public and the press.
