Introduction → Enrollment · 3 edits

MINOR

The bill transitioned from its introduction package to a clean enrolled resolution. All supporting materials (the Mayor's nomination letter, biographical summary, and legal sufficiency memo) were removed, leaving only the final resolution text. The year in the resolution title changed from 2025 to 2026, reflecting when the Council actually acted on the confirmation rather than when the nomination was submitted.

TIMELINE

The resolution title year changed from 'Confirmation Resolution of 2025' to 'Confirmation Resolution of 2026,' indicating the Council confirmed the appointment in 2026 rather than 2025.

TECHNICAL

The Mayor's nomination letter, nominee biographical summary, and Office of General Counsel legal sufficiency review memo were all removed as part of converting the introduction package into a clean enrolled resolution.

Section 3 wording was simplified from 'The Council of the District of Columbia shall transmit' to 'The Council shall transmit,' and 'to the Office of the Mayor' was shortened to 'to the Mayor.'
