MINOR

The bill text was reformatted from a legislative resolution format to an enrolled bill format, with the header changed from 'By:AAReynolds H.R.ANo.A591' to '89(R) HR 591 - Enrolled version - Bill Text'. A new sentence about WCAG 2.1 accessibility standards was added at the beginning. The core content remains a resolution honoring Cliff Albright for his work with Black Voters Matter Fund, but the formatting and presentation were significantly altered. This appears to be primarily a formatting and administrative update rather than a substantive policy change.
