MINOR
The bill transitioned from an introduced draft to an enrolled, final version, indicating it has successfully passed both the House and Senate. The substantive content regarding the commendation of Theogony's staff remains identical, but the text was reformatted to fit official state printing standards, resulting in the removal of draft metadata and the addition of final approval dates.
TECHNICAL
Removed draft session headers, bill numbers, and patron lists that were only relevant during the legislative process.
Added official enrollment status, final approval dates for the House and Senate, and a unique enrolled bill identifier (HJ196ER).
Reformatted the text layout and line breaks to comply with official enrolled bill printing standards.
