Memorials, Recognition - Nate Mason, FFA National Champion -

SJR 138 is a Tennessee legislative resolution recognizing Nate Mason, a Cocke County High School student, for winning the National Agriscience Fair championship at the 2025 National FFA Convention. It specifically honors his achievement as the first-ever FFA national champion from Cocke County and commends his research project on how environmental factors (like light, temperature, and humidity) affect chicken growth. The resolution has no legal or financial impact - it serves solely as a symbolic gesture of appreciation from the state legislature. It directly affects Nate Mason (the honoree) and the Cocke County FFA chapter, which earned a National 3 Star Chapter Award alongside him.
