MINOR
The bill text was updated from a Rerevised version to a Revised version, reflecting that all amendments were adopted on second reading in the Second House rather than being fully adopted in the Second House. This indicates a procedural status change rather than substantive policy modifications.
TECHNICAL
Header text changed from 'REREVISED' to 'REVISED' and updated the amendment status description to reflect adoption on second reading instead of full adoption in the Second House.
Removed the '3rd Reading Unamended' stamp and associated date (April 10, 2025) from the House section, indicating the bill is no longer in that procedural stage.
