Plain-language change summary

The updated version of Assembly Resolution 18 adds more details about the immigration challenges at the U.S.-Mexico border, citing a specific number of migrants apprehended and emphasizing the dangers they face during their journey. It also highlights the critical understaffing of law enforcement agencies at the border and reaffirms the state's historical role in providing support for immigration enforcement efforts. These changes matter because they offer a clearer picture of the current crisis, which informs the call for state action to send aid to address the situation more urgently.
