What changed between versions

Introduced Enrolled · 4 edits
MODERATE
The bill transitioned from an 'Introduced' draft to an 'Enrolled' final version, adding official session headers, approval dates, and a unique bill identifier (HJ187ER). The core legislative text, which commends a specific fraternity chapter for its 50th anniversary, remains substantively unchanged. The primary differences are administrative formatting and status updates rather than new policy requirements.
Scope change
The scope of the bill's subject matter remains unchanged; only its official status and formatting have been updated to reflect final passage.
TECHNICAL

Added 'ENROLLED' status and approval dates (House: March 2, Senate: March 5) to indicate the bill has passed both chambers and is ready for signing.

Inserted a unique bill identifier 'HJ187ER' to distinguish the final enrolled version from the original draft.

Removed the list of specific sponsors (Patrons) and the original introduction date, as these are no longer relevant once the bill is finalized.

Adjusted the document layout and spacing to conform to the official enrolled format required for printing and signing.
