MINOR
The bill transitioned from a draft version to an enrolled (final) version, adding signatures from legislative leaders and removing internal committee references. The substantive text was expanded to include new clauses honoring the 'Semper Fidelis' motto and expressing appreciation for Wisconsin Marines, veterans, and civilians, while the final resolution clause was slightly rephrased for clarity.
Scope change
The scope of the resolution was broadened to explicitly recognize the Marine Corps motto and thank specific groups (veterans and civilians) in addition to active-duty personnel.
REQUIREMENT
Added a new clause recognizing the U.S. Marine Corps motto 'Semper Fidelis' and the people of Wisconsin's appreciation for Marines, veterans, and civilians.
TECHNICAL
Removed draft metadata, committee referral notes, and internal formatting codes; added official signatures and dates to finalize the document.
Rephrased the final resolution clause to change 'celebrates... and recognizes' to 'celebrates... and recognizes its great history,' improving grammatical flow.
