MINOR
The document changed from a House Resolution draft to its final Enrolled version, primarily involving the removal of the legislative digest and the addition of official signatures and page headers. This process signifies that the bill has passed all legislative stages and is ready for the Governor's signature, but it does not alter the substantive policy of the resolution.
TECHNICAL
Removed the legislative digest and explanatory notes which serve only as informational summaries and are not part of the law.
Added official Enrolled status markers, Speaker of the House signature block, and updated page headers to reflect the final version.
Adjusted line breaks and spacing to match the formatting standards of the enrolled bill.
