What changed in the latest version

4 added · 2 removed

Plain-language change summary

The latest version of Bill HB 4447 added a new section about severability, which means that if any part of the law is found to be invalid, the rest of the law can still stand. This is important because it helps ensure that the entire legislative intent isn't lost due to potential legal challenges to any specific part. Additionally, a couple of lines from the previous version were removed, but those changes don't appear to affect the overall intent or application of the bill.
