MINOR
The bill transitioned from its 'Engrossed' version to the final 'Enrolled' version, which is the official text signed into law. The primary change involves the removal of internal legislative tracking headers and page markers that were present in the draft version, leaving the substantive policy text regarding violence prevention funding and community grants unchanged.
Scope change
No substantive change to the bill's scope or applicability; only formatting and header cleanup.
TECHNICAL
Removed internal legislative page headers and version labels (e.g., 'SB2280 Engrossed') that were used during the drafting process but are not part of the final law.
