AI Summary
This joint resolution proposes an amendment to the Georgia Constitution to allow for the creation of the Georgia Next Generation 9-1-1 Fund. This fund would be established by the General Assembly, which could then dedicate specific revenues to it. The money in this fund would be exclusively used for improving, maintaining, and operating 9-1-1 emergency systems across the state, including the transition to "Next Generation 9-1-1" (which refers to advanced 9-1-1 services that can handle more than just voice calls, like text messages and data). The resolution also outlines the process for submitting this proposed amendment to voters for ratification, explaining that if approved, it will become part of the state's Constitution.
