Plain-language change summary

The bill has been updated to rename a bridge in Kanawha County to the “Kidd Brothers Veterans Memorial Bridge” instead of just the “Kidd Brothers Bridge.” This change highlights the recognition of the siblings' military service during World War II and honors their contributions more explicitly. By adding "Veterans Memorial" to the name, the legislation aims to better commemorate the family's sacrifices and the broader sacrifices of veterans.
