Plain-language change summary

The bill HJR 231 now officially designates a portion of Interstate 22 as the James, which honors an individual or group associated with that name. The previously proposed version included a placeholder instead of a specific designation. This change is important as it provides a formal recognition, which can promote community pride and awareness of the person or event the designation represents.
