MODERATE
The bill text was reformatted and reorganized during its passage from introduction to enrollment, with significant changes to layout and spacing. The substantive content of the resolution honoring Clifford H. Walls, Jr. remained unchanged, including all WHEREAS clauses detailing his military service and personal life, and the RESOLVED clauses expressing the Senate's respect.
