MINOR

ACR 182 was amended to add a large list of coauthors (over 50 Assembly Members), remove one WHEREAS clause, and modify the designated dates for Youth Mental Health Awareness Week. The date change from 'May 11, 2026, to May 15, 2026' to 'May 11, 3, 2026, to May 15, 9, 2026' appears to contain markup artifacts or errors, as the resulting dates are not valid. The removal of the first WHEREAS clause and addition of coauthors suggest a minor refinement of the resolution's framing and broader legislative support.

SCOPE

Added over 50 Assembly Member coauthors, indicating broad bipartisan or multi-member support for the resolution.

REQUIREMENT

Removed the first WHEREAS clause: 'Mental health must be prioritized with the same urgency as physical health.' All other WHEREAS clauses were retained and renumbered.

TIMELINE

The designated dates changed from 'May 11, 2026, to May 15, 2026' to 'May 11, 3, 2026, to May 15, 9, 2026.' The inserted numbers (3 and 9) appear to be amendment markup artifacts or errors, as they do not form valid dates. The intended date range is unclear from the amended text.
