No substantive policy changes were made. The diff reflects a transition from the official chaptered state document format to a web page rendering of the same resolution. All WHEREAS clauses, resolved sections, and the legislative counsel's digest are identical in both versions.

TECHNICAL

The document was reformatted from an official printed chaptered layout (with headers like STATE OF CALIFORNIA, AUTHENTICATED, ELECTRONIC LEGAL MATERIAL) to a web page layout with navigation elements, search boxes, and bill tracking links. No legislative text was altered.
