MINOR
No substantive changes were made to HCR 51. The resolution honoring Louis Lamphere for receiving the gubernatorial Rays of Kindness recognition remains identical in content. The only differences are formatting and layout: the old version used a page-numbered format with a VT LEG tracking number, while the new official version uses a standard Vermont House header style (State of Vermont, Montpelier, Concurrent House Resolution).
TECHNICAL
Header and formatting changed from a numbered page layout (R-67, Page 1 of 1, VT LEG #382124 v.1) to the official House format with State of Vermont / Montpelier header block. No policy or substantive text was altered.
