MINOR
The bill progressed from introduction to final enrolled form, with no substantive policy changes to the core provisions. The main differences are formatting and procedural: the bill title was updated to reflect its enrolled status, sponsor information was expanded to include additional representatives and senators, and the document was reorganized to include official enrollment signatures and dates. The actual legislative text regarding the advisory committee for early childhood special education services remains unchanged.
TECHNICAL
Header information updated to reflect enrolled status with additional sponsors (Representatives DOBSON, FRAGALA, HUDSON, NGUYEN, TRAN and Senator PATTERSON) and official enrollment signatures from House and Senate leadership plus Governor approval.
Document formatting changed from introduction draft to enrolled format, including removal of summary section and addition of official passage dates and signatures.
