HR 428 Georgia House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

House Study Committee on the Affordability and Accessibility of Georgia's Legitimation Process; create

This bill creates a House Study Committee to examine Georgia's process for unmarried biological fathers to establish legal parental rights (known as "legitimation"). The committee will specifically study whether the current system is affordable and accessible, particularly for fathers with limited financial resources. The committee, composed of five House members, must complete its study and submit findings by December 1, 2025, but this resolution itself does not change any laws or directly affect any individuals.
