Rerevised → Final Act · 4 edits · Mar 6, 2026

MODERATE

The bill was restructured from a multi-page document with legislative history headers into a clean, final act format. The substantive content remains unchanged, detailing supplemental appropriations for the Department of Human Services for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2025, including specific funding allocations for personnel, operations, and various programs.

TECHNICAL

Removed all legislative history headers, committee assignment notes, and summary text to streamline the document for final signature and enactment.

Reorganized the layout to place the bill title and sponsor information at the top, followed by the operative text, replacing the previous format that interleaved headers with the content.

Inserted a standard note at the beginning instructing readers to consult the legislative status sheet to determine the Governor's action on the bill.

Consolidated the appropriation table and related funding source footnotes into a continuous, unbroken text block to remove page breaks and formatting artifacts present in the previous version.
