MINOR
The bill transitioned from a standard introduced draft to an enrolled version, which is the final, legally binding form ready for printing and distribution. The substantive policy content, including the commendation of the Mertz Career and Technical Center and the specific reasons for it, remains unchanged. The primary differences are formatting adjustments, such as the addition of official headers, the removal of the sponsor's name, and the inclusion of the enrolled bill identifier.
TECHNICAL

The document was reformatted to include official enrolled headers and identifiers, while removing the sponsor's name and introductory session lines.

Text spacing and line breaks were adjusted to meet the strict formatting requirements of the enrolled bill stage.
