MINOR
This bill updates the legislative version of HB 1188 from House District 1 to House District 2, incorporating administrative metadata changes and refining the text for clarity. The substantive policy regarding the teacher workforce housing stipend program remains unchanged, but the formatting of the statute's title and the description of the Teachers' Housing Revolving Fund uses were adjusted to improve readability and consistency.
TECHNICAL

Updated the bill header and administrative metadata to reflect the transition from House District 1 to House District 2, including changes to bill numbers and timestamps.

Refined the statutory language in Section 2 to improve the flow of the section title and the list of allowable uses for the Teachers' Housing Revolving Fund, changing the format from a single paragraph to a numbered list for clarity.

Adjusted the formatting of the bill summary and effective date notation to align with the new House District 2 version.
