Plain-language change summary

The updated version of the bill adds an acknowledgment of its passage in the Senate and the Secretary's attestation. It removes the section titles, specifically the short title and subsections regarding the annual reporting requirements for digital advertising platforms related to public service advertisements. This means that the specific framework for reporting by advertising platforms is no longer included in the bill, potentially altering how digital advertising practices are scrutinized in relation to public service messages.
