Impact

While House Resolution 86 does not create or amend laws, it casts a spotlight on the exemplary youth within the community and encourages the continuation of values related to civic engagement and personal responsibility. The resolution identifies several students who have embodied these traits, thereby contributing to a culture of recognition and celebration within educational settings. This practice can enhance community ties and inspire other students to develop similar commendable characteristics.

Summary

House Resolution 86 is a commendation recognizing the George Walton & James Oglethorpe Chapters of the Daughters of the American Revolution for their 2022-2023 Good Citizens initiative. This resolution emphasizes the importance of the Daughters of the American Revolution, a nonpolitical volunteer women’s service organization that promotes historic preservation, education, and patriotism. It specifically highlights the organization's commitment to fostering qualities of leadership, service, dependability, and patriotism through their annual scholarship contest, established in 1934 to reward deserving individuals within their communities.

Contention

There does not appear to be any notable contention surrounding House Resolution 86. As a commendatory resolution, it is generally uncontroversial and is intended solely to honor the achievements of the recognized students and the efforts of the Daughters of the American Revolution. Stakeholders may view this positively as a way to promote civic virtues, although some might argue about the efficiency of recognition programs versus direct support initiatives for youth.
