MODERATE

The document changed from a legislative resolution honoring a legislative intern to an enrolled bill text with significant formatting and content reorganization. The substantive content remains the same - recognizing Ella Ponthier for her service as a legislative intern - but the document structure was altered with added headers, spacing changes, and signature blocks. This appears to be a technical formatting update rather than a policy change.
