This is a purely formatting change between two versions of the same memorial resolution for James McNamara. The text content is identical; only line wrapping, header layout, and the addition of a formal 'State of Vermont / House of Representatives' masthead were altered. No substantive policy changes.

TECHNICAL

Header reformatted from an internal tracking format (R-26, Page 1 of 1, 2023) to a formal official layout with 'State of Vermont / House of Representatives' masthead and centered title block.

Line wrapping adjusted throughout all Whereas clauses and the Resolved section; no words added or removed in the body text.

Internal tracking footer 'VT LEG #368741 v.1' was removed from the official version.
