MINOR
This document is a legislative bill (HR 702) that was converted from an introduced version to an enrolled version, which is the final form ready for signing.

The formatting was reorganized to meet official enrolled bill standards.
Scope change
No substantive policy changes to the bill's scope, applicability, or content. The resolution's purpose and recipients remain identical.
TECHNICAL

Added a note about digital content accessibility alignment with WCAG 2.1 standards, which is a technical compliance update rather than a policy change.
