What changed between versions

04/17/26 - Chaptered SCR134 · 4 edits
MODERATE
No substantive policy changes occurred between these two versions. The diff reflects a transition from the official chaptered document format (with state header and authentication language) to a web page representation from the California Legislature website, which adds navigation elements, search features, version history, and a fiscal committee designation. The actual resolution text recognizing March 21, 2026 as International Day of Nowroz is identical in both versions.
TECHNICAL

Web page navigation elements (skip to content, home, accessibility, FAQ, feedback, sitemap, login) and search functionality were added as part of the website interface.

A 'Fiscal Committee: NO' designation was added, indicating no fiscal impact review was required for this resolution.

Version history metadata was added showing three versions: 04/17/26 - Chaptered, 04/13/26 - Enrolled, and 02/23/26 - Introduced.

The official state authentication header ('STATE OF CALIFORNIA', 'AUTHENTICATED', 'ELECTRONIC LEGICAL MATERIAL') was removed in the web version.
