MINOR

The resolution was amended to reflect the official sponsors of the bill and to slightly reorganize the text while maintaining the same substantive purpose. The core declaration of February 11, 2025 as White Shirt Day in Michigan remains unchanged.

TECHNICAL

The list of sponsors was updated from a single sponsor (Rep. Neeley) to include multiple representatives (Reps. Neeley, Breen, Fitzgerald, Glanville, MacDonell, Myers-Phillips, Paiz, Rheingans, Rogers, Weiss, Wilson, Witwer, Wooden and Xiong), reflecting the House's adoption of the resolution with additional supporters.

Text was reorganized and slightly reworded for flow, but the substantive content regarding the UAW's history, the 88th anniversary of the first contract with General Motors, and the declaration of White Shirt Day remained the same.
