HR 1332 Georgia House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Jackson, Edna Branch; commend

This is a ceremonial resolution (HR 1332), not a policy bill. It formally recognizes and commends Edna Branch Jackson for her lifetime of public service to Georgia. The resolution highlights her civil rights activism (including participation in Savannah sit-ins and the 1963 March on Washington), her 30-year career at Savannah State University, her 2011 historic election as Savannah's first African-American female mayor, and numerous community honors. The House of Representatives passed the resolution to "extend the most sincere best wishes" to Jackson, with a copy to be delivered to her. No policy changes or affected parties beyond symbolic recognition are involved.
