Bill > SR133

This resolution honors the Georgia Electric Membership Corporation (EMC), recognizing its 85 years of service and designating February 10, 2025, as Georgia EMC Day at the state capitol. EMCs are member-owned, not-for-profit utilities that serve approximately 4.4 million people across 73% of Georgia's land area, representing 41 local electric cooperatives and related organizations. The resolution highlights the significant contributions of electric cooperatives to rural Georgia, emphasizing their role beyond electricity provision, including economic development, civic leadership, job creation, youth support, education programs, and community service. The resolution celebrates the organization's longstanding commitment to providing safe, reliable, and affordable electricity and related services like broadband, while also directing the Secretary of the Senate to distribute copies of the resolution to the public and press.
