Hays, Linda; 50 years of service to the Newton County Government; honor
This bill honors Linda Hays for her 50 years of service to Newton County Government, recognizing her as the longest-serving elected official in the county's history. The resolution formally acknowledges her career beginning in 1976 as a Clerk of Courts office employee and her subsequent election as Clerk in 1982. It directs the House Clerk to distribute copies of the resolution to Hays as a commemorative gesture. The measure is a ceremonial recognition rather than a policy change, focusing on celebrating her long public service record.
