MINOR
The bill was transitioned from an original draft to an enrolled version, which involves adding a comprehensive list of sponsors and updating the page headers. No substantive policy changes, such as new laws, funding, or eligibility criteria, were made; the text of the condolence resolution for Representative Billy Wayne Montgomery remains identical.
TECHNICAL
Added a full list of sponsors (Representatives and Senators) to the enrolled version, whereas the original draft only listed a few.
Updated page headers and document identifiers to reflect the enrolled status of the resolution.
