MINOR
No substantive policy changes were made to ACR 194 (Women's Equality Day). The diff reflects only a reformatting of the document from a traditional chaptered legislative layout into a web-based presentation format, with added website navigation elements and bill tracking metadata. The resolution text, digest, and all WHEREAS clauses remain identical.
TECHNICAL

The document was reformatted from a formal authenticated chaptered layout (with 'STATE OF CALIFORNIA / AUTHENTICATED / ELECTRONIC LEGAL MATERIAL' header) into a web page format with navigation menus, search tools, and bill tracking features.

Website UI elements were added including navigation links (home, accessibility, FAQ, feedback, sitemap), quick search fields, version history listing (08/20/26 Chaptered, 08/17/26 Enrolled, 06/30/26 Amended Senate, 05/04/26 Introduced), and user action buttons (Track Bill, Add To My Favorites, Share).
