MINOR
This bill primarily involves formatting and layout changes rather than substantive policy modifications. The text content of the overtime provisions for domestic service workers and live-in domestic workers remains unchanged, with the same definitions, overtime rates, and enforcement mechanisms preserved. The main differences are cosmetic formatting adjustments, including spacing, line breaks, and the addition of Senate amendment markings and bill tracking numbers.
