MINOR

The bill text was converted from a 'Reprint' draft to its final 'As Enrolled' version, which is the official text signed into law. The substantive policy content regarding the designation of October as 'Menopause Awareness Month' and the required Governor's proclamation remains unchanged. The primary differences are the removal of draft headers and the addition of final session and chapter metadata.

Scope change

No change in the scope or applicability of the law; the bill continues to designate October as Menopause Awareness Month and requires a Governor's proclamation.

TECHNICAL

Removed draft metadata including the 'Reprint' date, committee referral summary, and page markers used during the legislative process.

Added final session identifiers ('83rd Session') and chapter formatting to indicate the bill has been officially enrolled and signed.

Adjusted line breaks and spacing to conform to the standard formatting of an enrolled bill rather than a committee reprint.
