TECHNICAL

Updated statutory citation for the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act to include the correct statute number (Pub. L. No. 119-4; 139 Stat. 9) and corrected the D.C. Code reference to 47-369.02.

Corrected the D.C. Law citation for the Fiscal Year 2025 Local Budget Act from 71 DCR 11543 to 71 DCR 8366.

Removed the incorrect parenthetical notation showing a total decrease of ($253,388,552236,858,618) and replaced it with the correct total decrease of ($236,858,618).

Corrected the name of an agency from 'Board of Ethics and Accountability' to 'Board of Ethics and Government Accountability'.

Removed the duplicate entry for 'Office of the Chief Technology Officer' that previously showed a total rescission amount including both local and other funds, simplifying it to just the local funds portion.

Reorganized the list of agencies under Economic Development and Regulation, removing the Real Property Tax Appeals Commission and Rental Housing Commission entries that were incorrectly placed in the Governmental Direction and Support section.
