Lunar New Year Celebration; recognize

HR 1344 is a ceremonial resolution recognizing February 17, 2026, as the start of the Lunar New Year in Georgia. It acknowledges the contributions of Georgia's nearly 500,000 Asian and Pacific Islander American residents (representing 4% of the state's population) and specifically highlights Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese communities who celebrate this holiday. The resolution, adopted by the Georgia House of Representatives on February 11, 2026, formally encourages state legislators and the public to join in celebrating the Lunar New Year. This is a symbolic gesture with no binding policy changes, aiming to affirm Georgia's cultural diversity.
