SCR47 Original → SCR47 Enrolled · 3 edits · May 11, 2026

MINOR

The bill was converted from an original draft to an enrolled version, adding the names of co-sponsoring senators and significantly expanding the text to include detailed biographical facts about Joe Horn's career. The substantive policy change is the addition of specific statistics and historical achievements to the resolution's 'Whereas' clauses, which serves to provide a more comprehensive record of the honoree's accomplishments rather than altering any legal requirements or funding.

Scope change

The scope of the resolution expanded from a simple commendation to a detailed historical record, but the legal effect (commending Joe Horn) remains unchanged.

TECHNICAL

Added the names of co-sponsoring senators to the header.

Expanded the text to include detailed biographical facts, career statistics, and specific achievements of Joe Horn.

Removed the legislative digest and footer notes that were present in the original draft.
