Plain-language change summary

The changes to Bill SB 172 include the removal of a line that referenced Act 165 from the previous regular session. This could mean that the current bill is no longer tied to or impacted by that earlier act. This matters because it may simplify the bill's provisions and ensure it stands on its own without the influence of previous legislation.
