En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia House of Representatives rather than a change to state law. It recognizes the Morocco National Football Team, known as the Atlas Lions, along with its head coach, coaching staff, and the Royal Moroccan Football Federation, for competing in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The resolution highlights Morocco's historic run to the 2022 World Cup semifinals, the growing Moroccan-American community in Georgia, and the team's upcoming match against Haiti at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta on June 24, 2026. It directs the Clerk of the House to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to the team as a formal gesture of recognition and goodwill.
