MINOR

This diff reflects a change in document format rather than any substantive policy change. The 'from' version is a formatted legislative document (enrolled version with page numbers and attestation), while the 'to' version is a web page rendering of the same bill from the California Legislature website, including navigation elements, search tools, and metadata. The actual resolution text commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence is substantively identical in both versions.

TECHNICAL

The document changed from a formatted legislative enrolled version (with page numbers, attestation block, and formal layout) to a web page scrape that includes site navigation, search bars, version history links, and metadata such as coauthors and introduction date.

Coauthors are now explicitly listed: Senators Ashby, Becker, Caballero, Choi, Grayson, Grove, Hurtado, Niello, Ochoa Bogh, Reyes, Seyarto, Stern, and Umberg. The introduction date (January 05, 2026) is also displayed.

Header formatting changed from lowercase 'senate, california legislature-2025-26 regular session' to uppercase 'CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE-2025-2026 REGULAR SESSION' with a separate 'Senate Resolution No. 67' line.
