MINOR
The bill text was reformatted from a draft introduction to an enrolled version, with significant changes to line breaks, spacing, and capitalization. No substantive policy changes were made to the resolution's content, which congratulates G. David Smith on becoming president-elect of the State Bar of Texas.
TECHNICAL
Line breaks and spacing were restructured throughout the document, converting paragraph-style text into a more spaced-out format typical of enrolled legislative documents.
Capitalization was standardized, such as changing 'RESOLVED' to 'RESOLVED' and adjusting spacing around punctuation.
Signature lines for Senate members and certification text were added at the end of the document, completing the formal enrolled version.
