Summary — H.R. 989 (LC 129 0475) — Commending Gloria Dubberly

Overview / Purpose

H.R. 989 (LC 129 0475) is an honorary resolution of the Georgia House of Representatives that recognizes and commends Gloria Dubberly on the occasion of her retirement. The resolution lauds her long public service—most notably over 20 years as Tattnall County Probate Judge—and her prior ten years as Chief Clerk in that office, as well as civic and faith-based involvement.

Key provisions

  • Formally recognizes and commends Gloria Dubberly for "efficient, effective, unselfish, and dedicated public service" to the State of Georgia.
  • Highlights her career history: ten years as Chief Clerk of the Tattnall County Probate Judge’s Office and more than 20 years serving as Tattnall County Probate Judge.
  • Notes community and church involvement (First Baptist Church of Glennville; Dayspring Walk to Emmaus board service).
  • Expresses congratulations on her retirement and extends best wishes for continued health and happiness.
  • Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to make an appropriate copy of the resolution available for distribution to Gloria Dubberly.

Who is affected

  • Primary subject: Gloria Dubberly (honoree).
  • Secondary: Members of the Georgia House who participated in adoption and the Clerk’s office for distribution of the resolution.
  • Practical effect: purely symbolic and ceremonial; it does not change statutes, regulations, funding, or create enforceable rights or obligations.

Legislative status and timeline (as recorded)

  • 2025-01-07: Filed with the Clerk (noted as filed by Rep. Yolonda Morris); placed on Calendar — Agreed Resolutions.
  • 2025-02-05: (Record shows “Introduced in House” / referred to House Committee on Education and Workforce — this appears to reflect mixed procedural data.)
  • 2025-04-04 to 2025-05-01: Considered on calendars (House Hopper; First Readers; Read and Adopted; referred to Local & Consent Calendars).
  • 2025-05-22: Considered in Local & Consent Calendars.
  • 2025-05-23: Laid before the House; placed on Congratulatory & Memorial Resolutions Calendar; adopted (non-record vote); reported enrolled.

Legal effect / impact

This is a ceremonial resolution with no binding legal or regulatory impact. It serves to publicly honor an individual’s service and to create a formal record of commendation.

Note on conflicting material in provided text

The packet included unrelated or conflicting items:
- A one-line statement about Executive Order 11246 (Equal Employment Opportunity) appearing as though to be given "full force and effect of law" — that language is inconsistent with the Georgia House resolution text and would be a substantive legal change if intended; there is no other supporting text or legislative context for such a change in the provided resolution.
- The resolution text (LC 129 0475) clearly addresses Gloria Dubberly and matches the procedural history showing adoption in the Georgia House.

If you need, I can:
- Produce a clean, one-page printable copy of the resolution text as summarized; or
- Check and reconcile the apparent discrepancy about Executive Order 11246 versus the Georgia honorary resolution by locating the originating docket or clerk’s entry.
