MODERATE
This bill was amended to add more sponsors and advance its legislative status. The substantive text of the law remains largely the same, though there are minor formatting changes and one additional reference to a 2024 amendment in the effective date clause.
TECHNICAL
Added three new sponsors (Clark, Palmesano, Rozic) and Peoples-Stokes to the list of bill sponsors.
Changed bill status from 'read once and referred to committee' to 'reported from committee, advanced to third reading, amended and ordered reprinted'.
Added reference to chapter 159 of the laws of 2024 in the effective date clause.
Minor formatting changes including reordering of 'delivered or issued' language and hyphenation adjustments throughout the text.
