MINOR
The bill was finalized and assigned Chapter 580 with a specific approval date of March 24, 2025. A minor formatting adjustment was made to the membership section to clarify that Senate-appointed citizen members are a distinct group from House-appointed ones. Additionally, the funding section was updated to explicitly name the 'Commission on Women's Health' for clarity.
TECHNICAL

Added the official approval date and session chapter number to the header.

Inserted the word 'and' in the membership list to clearly separate the two groups of citizen members appointed by the Senate.

DEFINITION

Added the full name 'Commission on Women's Health' to the funding section to ensure the entity is clearly identified.
