MINOR
The primary change between the Engrossed and Enrolled versions of SB 2194 is a formatting update to the document headers, changing the status from 'Engrossed' to 'Enrolled'. This indicates the bill has passed both houses of the legislature and is ready for the governor's signature. No substantive policy, legal, or operational changes were made to the text of the bill itself.
Scope change
No change in scope or applicability; the bill's subject matter remains identical.
TECHNICAL
Updated the running headers on pages 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 to reflect the bill's final 'Enrolled' status instead of its previous 'Engrossed' status, signifying legislative completion.
