Bill > HR1366

This resolution recognizes and commends Georgia Advancing Communities Together, Inc. (Georgia ACT), a statewide organization that supports nonprofit groups working on affordable housing and community development. It acknowledges the significant shortage of affordable housing in Georgia, where many low-income households struggle to find homes, and notes that rising rents are outpacing wage growth, making it difficult for full-time workers to afford housing. The resolution highlights that stable housing is crucial for better health, education, and economic opportunities, and that Georgia ACT works to address these needs by connecting organizations, providing training, and advocating for safe, decent, and affordable housing. To further this cause, the resolution designates February 25, 2026, as Georgia ACT Housing Day at the capitol, an event intended to bring together leaders, residents, and policymakers to discuss the importance of housing, tenant protections, homelessness prevention, and community development. The Clerk of the House of Representatives is directed to provide a copy of this resolution to Georgia ACT.
