Bill > SR953

This resolution commends the Black Legislative Leaders Network (BLLN) for its work in strengthening communities through policy and recognizes the significance of its upcoming HBCU Caucus Legislative Summit. The BLLN is a national group of Black state legislative leaders focused on advancing policies for education, economic opportunity, and civic leadership, and it works to connect legislators, higher education, and the private sector to develop innovative policies. The BLLN's HBCU Caucus initiative specifically aims to bolster the relationship between state legislatures and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), which have historically played a crucial role in educating leaders and fostering economic mobility. The summit, to be held in Atlanta, Georgia, from March 26-28, 2026, will bring together state legislators, HBCU leaders, corporate partners, and policy experts to discuss strengthening legislative support for HBCUs, developing workforce partnerships, promoting research, and highlighting their economic impact. The resolution also expresses appreciation to the summit organizers and participants for their contributions to HBCUs and future generations, and directs the Secretary of the Senate to distribute copies of the resolution.
