MINOR
The bill text was updated from a 'Rerevised' version to a 'Revised' version, reflecting that amendments adopted during the second reading in the Senate have been incorporated. This change indicates the bill has progressed further in the legislative process and the text now includes all Senate amendments.
TECHNICAL
The header was updated to change the status from 'REREVISED' to 'REVISED' and added the phrase 'on Second Reading in the Second House', indicating the bill has moved past the initial amendment stage in the Senate.
The line '3rd Reading Unamended February 19, 2025' was removed, which previously indicated the bill had not yet been amended during its third reading in the Senate.
