MINOR
The bill was converted from an original draft to its final enrolled version, which involves significant formatting and structural reorganization. The substantive policy content, including the designation of April 13, 2026, as Social Work Day and the 'Whereas' clauses describing the profession's impact, remains identical. The primary changes are the addition of official titles like 'ENROLLED' and 'SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE,' the removal of the legislative digest, and the renumbering of lines to fit the final official format.
TECHNICAL
The document structure was reorganized to match the official enrolled format, including the addition of the Speaker's title and the removal of the explanatory digest.
Line numbers and spacing were adjusted throughout the text to align with the final enrolled version.
