Summary — SR 88
Note on source materials and scope
- You provided a bill header (SR 88: “Commend Daniel Calcote as Instructor of the Year at the Perkinston Campus at MGCCC”) but the document content contains multiple different Senate resolutions from different states (Kentucky, Illinois, Georgia, Hawaii) and a mixed set of legislative actions and sponsors. Because the actual text honoring Daniel Calcote is not present in the supplied content, this summary (1) calls out that inconsistency and (2) summarizes the distinct resolutions that appear in the supplied document.
If you intended SR 88 to specifically commend Daniel Calcote, please provide the text for that resolution and I will prepare a focused summary.

Other document metadata and procedural notes
- The file includes an assortment of legislative actions and dates (reads, adoptions, committee referrals, enrolling, filing with Secretary of State) that appear to be aggregated from multiple jurisdictions and resolutions.
- Sponsors listed (e.g., Kenya Wicks, Brian Strickland, Ed Harbison, Derek Mallow, Freddie Powell Sims, Tonya Anderson, Gail Davenport, Jason Esteves, Michael ‘Doc’ Rhett, GABBARD, Bob Hensgens) suggest Georgia and possibly Hawaii involvement; however, the sponsors do not consistently map to the distinct resolution texts included.
Recommendation
- Please confirm which SR 88 you want summarized (e.g., the Daniel Calcote commendation) and provide the resolution text if available. If you want a single consolidated summary of one of the resolutions identified above (Kentucky, Illinois, Georgia, or Hawaii), indicate which one and I will produce a focused, detailed summary.
