MINOR

The resolution text itself is substantively unchanged. The diff reflects a transition from a plain-text enrolled document to a web page rendering on the California Legislature website, which adds navigation elements, bill metadata (version history, status dates), and a Legislative Counsel's Digest header. The only minor content addition is the listing of coauthors (Senators Gonzalez and Ochoa Bogh).

TECHNICAL

Coauthors Senators Gonzalez and Ochoa Bogh are now listed alongside the primary author, Senator Strickland.

The document was reformatted from a plain-text enrolled resolution into a web page layout with navigation menus, search tools, bill status history, and a Legislative Counsel's Digest section header. No policy language was altered.
