AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 29 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO THE DESIGNATION OF A STATE DRAGONFLY.

This procedural bill formally adds the Blue Dasher to Title 29 of the Delaware Code, recognizing it as a new state symbol. The change does not alter existing laws or policies but provides a formal emblem for Delaware's natural heritage. It directly affects Delaware's state identity by expanding its official symbols.
