Memorials, Sports - John Mason -

SJR 786 is a ceremonial resolution honoring John Mason, a Sevier County High School football player, for receiving an All-Region 1-5A honorable mention. It does not create any legal obligations or policy changes - it simply expresses legislative recognition of his athletic achievement and character. The resolution was unanimously passed by both chambers of the Tennessee General Assembly and signed into effect. As a commemorative measure, it directly affects only the recognition of one student-athlete, with no broader impact on laws or constituents.
