MINOR
The bill was renumbered and reorganized to reflect its status as a House Floor version of a Senate Concurrent Resolution. The substantive policy content remains identical, urging the Texas Legislature to continue funding the Heartland Flyer rail service. The primary changes are formatting adjustments, including the addition of a House header and the insertion of a 'DIRECT TO CALENDAR' instruction at the end.
TECHNICAL
