A House resolution is the House speaking for itself: stating a position, honouring someone, or setting its own rules. Adopting it is the whole process. Once the House agrees to it, it is officially the House's word; it is not a law, so the Senate and the President have no part in it.

What this bill would do

This resolution expresses support for recognizing September 7, 2026, as ``Liturgical Dance Day'' and the International Dance Commission.

The resolution notes that liturgical dance is practiced in thousands of ministries across the nation. It further highlights that these dance ministers provide outreach programs for inner-city youth. Finally, the House of Representatives recognizes the International Dance Commission and its contributions to the creative arts and worship within the State of Georgia.
