What changed between versions

Rerevised Final Act · 4 edits · Mar 10, 2026
MODERATE
The bill was reorganized and clarified to include a note confirming it is ready for signature, while retaining the core purpose of funding capital construction information technology projects for state agencies. The substantive funding amounts and specific agency allocations remain consistent with the previous version, though the layout and explanatory notes regarding fund sources were adjusted for clarity.
Scope change
The bill's scope remains focused on funding IT capital construction for state agencies; no new agencies or project types were added or removed.
TECHNICAL

Added a note indicating the bill is prepared for signatures and clarified that the text reflects the final act rather than just the reengrossed version.

Reorganized the bill structure to place the bill title and sponsor information at the top, followed by the enacted text, replacing the previous layout where the title appeared later.

Adjusted the explanatory notes regarding how to interpret new material (capital letters) and deletions (dashes) to improve readability.

Removed the original bill summary section that warned readers the summary did not reflect amendments, as the document is now the final act.
