MINOR
The bill was transitioned from an Introduced version to a Senate Engrossed version, updating the title and sponsor information to reflect its progression through the legislative process. The text of the resolution regarding Major General Bill Van Dyke's military service was reformatted for readability, but the substantive historical facts and scope of the commemoration remained unchanged.
TECHNICAL
The document title was updated from 'Introduced Version' to 'Senate Engrossed Version' to indicate the bill has passed the Senate.
