MODERATE
The bill transitioned from an 'Introduced' draft to an 'Enrolled' final version, incorporating standard legislative formatting and official approval dates. The substantive text regarding the commendation of Piedmont CASA remains unchanged, though some lines were broken for layout and a few words were altered due to scanning errors.
TECHNICAL
Added official session headers, status labels (Enrolled), and approval dates for the House and Senate.
Corrected a scanning error where 'ENROLLED' was mistakenly changed to 'ENROLLE D' in the header.
Adjusted line breaks and spacing to fit the final enrolled format, splitting some sentences across multiple lines.
Removed the original patron names and introductory metadata that are not part of the final enrolled text.
