What changed between versions

04/21/26 - Chaptered ACR153 · 1 edit
MINOR
No substantive policy changes occurred between these two versions. The bill text (ACR 153, Irish American Heritage Month) is identical in content. The difference is purely presentational: the first version is the formal authenticated chaptered document with official headers and page numbering, while the second version is a web-based rendering of the same bill that includes website navigation elements such as search boxes, links, and UI components.
TECHNICAL

The document was reformatted from an authenticated legal text (with STATE OF CALIFORNIA header, page numbers, and column markers) into a web page layout that includes site navigation, search fields, and browser-based UI elements. The underlying resolution text is unchanged.
