The bill text changed from a draft 'Introduced' version to a final 'Enrolled' version, adding official signatures and dates while removing the introductory metadata. This indicates the bill has been fully approved by both the House and Senate and is ready to be sent to the Governor.
TECHNICAL

The header changed from 'Introduced' to 'Enrolled' and added the status 'HJ316ER', signifying the bill is finalized.

Added specific dates ('March 14, 2026') and signatures ('Agreed to by the House of Delegates' and 'Agreed to by the Senate') to confirm legislative approval.

Removed the bill identifier number ('26109795D') and the 'Offered' date, as these are no longer relevant to the final enrolled text.

Adjusted the layout and spacing of the text to match the formal formatting requirements for an enrolled bill.
