Bennett, LaVeda; recognize

This is a ceremonial Senate resolution (SR 298), not a policy bill. It formally recognizes LaVeda Bennett for her 20-year Marine Corps service, over 100,000 volunteer hours advocating for veterans (especially women and homeless veterans), and community work including founding programs like "Her Valor." The resolution has no legal effect or policy changes - it simply commends her contributions and extends "sincere best wishes" through a formal Senate adoption. It was passed unanimously by the Georgia Senate on February 28, 2025.
