MINOR
The bill text was updated to reflect its current legislative status, changing the header from 'Rerevised' to 'Revised' to indicate that amendments have been adopted on second reading. The list of House sponsors was shortened by removing four names, likely because those legislators withdrew their sponsorship or were no longer active in the bill's process. Additionally, a new page break or section marker was inserted, suggesting a structural adjustment in the document layout.
TECHNICAL
Four House sponsors (Duran, Joseph, Lieder, McCluskie) were removed from the sponsorship list.
The document header was updated from 'REREVISED' to 'REVISED' and the amendment status description was slightly reworded to reflect adoption on second reading.
