MINOR
The bill was finalized and enrolled for signature, removing the initial 'Introduced' header and the non-binding summary digest. The core policy text remains unchanged, directing the Secretary of State to file a bill in 2027 to review campaign finance limits based on the experience gained from the 2024 law.
TECHNICAL
Removed the 'Introduced' status header and the editor's summary digest, which is standard procedure when a bill is finalized and ready for the Governor's signature.
Added the official 'Enrolled' status page with signatures from the Senate, House, and Governor, indicating the bill has passed both chambers and is ready for signing into law.
Changed the document title from 'Senate Bill 1502' to 'Enrolled Senate Bill 1502' to reflect its final legislative status.
