The bill text was reformatted from a draft introduction to a final enrolled version, removing internal numbering and placeholder text while adding the official signature block. The substantive content regarding the congratulatory resolution for Dr. Richard M. Peterson remains unchanged.
TECHNICAL

Removed internal legislative tracking numbers (e.g., '1...1') and draft annotations, replacing them with clean, final text suitable for official publication.

Added the signature block at the end, including lines for the President of the Senate, Secretary of the Senate, and a member of the Texas Senate to certify adoption.

Corrected minor formatting inconsistencies, such as spacing around punctuation and line breaks, to match standard legislative style.
