MINOR
This document shows the transformation of Senate Joint Resolution 52 from its original introduced version to its enrolled (final) version. The primary changes involve formatting and layout adjustments rather than substantive policy modifications. The resolution's core purpose remains unchanged: to commend Richard A. Vaughan for his service as sheriff of Grayson County.
TECHNICAL
The document underwent significant formatting changes including the addition of multiple blank lines, repositioning of session and status labels, and changes in text alignment. The enrolled version includes additional identifiers like 'SJ52ER' and formatted spacing typical of final legislative documents.
The enrolled version added approval dates showing the resolution was agreed to by the Senate on January 22, 2026, and by the House of Delegates on January 26, 2026, indicating the legislative process was completed.
Removed introductory metadata including the bill number '26104654D' and patron information that was present in the introduced version but not needed in the final enrolled document.
