Here's what you can do:

221. This article shall not apply to an educational institution that is controlled by a religious organization if the application would not be consistent with the religious tenets of that organization.

Congressman, what's the effect of changing "which" to "that" in the text of the law? Why did they strike "which" throughout and change it to "that"?

I don't perceive any functional difference between "which" and "that" in this law. Therefore, I don't think it has any effect on the meaning of this law. I could stand corrected if someone else can posit any legally different interpretations of these two words.
