MODERATE
This document shows the transition of Senate Joint Resolution 73 from its 'Engrossed' version to the final 'Enrolled' version ready for signing. The substantive content of the resolution - confirming 100+ gubernatorial appointments across various state boards and councils - remains unchanged. The primary differences are formatting adjustments, page breaks, and the addition of final passage dates (Senate February 17, 2026; House February 13, 2026) that indicate the bill has completed its legislative journey.
TIMELINE

Added final legislative action dates showing the bill was agreed to by the House of Delegates on February 13, 2026, and the Senate on February 17, 2026, marking the completion of the legislative process.

TECHNICAL

Changed the header from 'ENGROSSED' to 'ENROLLED' and added the bill number 'SJ73ER' to indicate this is the final enrolled version ready for the Governor's signature.

Removed the 'Patron Prior to Engrossment' section and committee referral language, as these are no longer relevant to the final enrolled version.

Added page break markers and formatting adjustments (extra spacing and line breaks) typical of official enrolled legislative documents.
