It also changes the bill's procedural status to reflect additional committee actions and adds new sponsors to the legislation.

TIMELINE

The effective date for the $75,000 income threshold was updated to begin July 1, 2026, replacing the previous 2025 start date for that specific amount.

SCOPE

New sponsors (Cleare, Gonzalez, Ramos, Scarcella-Spanton) were added to the list of legislators introducing the bill.

REQUIREMENT

The legislative history was updated to include a new committee reassignment step involving the Committee on Aging per Senate Rule 6, section 8.
