What changed in the latest version
1 added · 2 removedPlain-language change summary
In the latest version of Bill SB 448, a reference to "Act 772 of the Regular Session" has been removed. This change likely means that whatever provisions or regulations linked to Act 772 are no longer part of this bill. This matters because it could simplify the bill or change the way it interacts with prior laws, potentially making it easier for lawmakers to implement or enforce the new measures proposed in SB 448.
