The bill was reformatted from a standard introduced version to an enrolled version, adding official session headers, enrollment status, and approval dates while removing draft markers and decorative lines. The substantive content of the resolution commending Elijah Sarratt for winning the 2025 College Football Playoff National Championship remains unchanged.

TECHNICAL

Removed draft session header and patron information, replacing with official enrolled session formatting and approval dates from both chambers.

Added enrollment status designation (ENROLLED) and bill identifier (SJ281ER) to indicate the bill has passed both legislative chambers.

Text was reflowed to fit standard enrolled bill formatting with adjusted line breaks and spacing, but all substantive language remained identical.
