MODERATE
This bill was reformatted from a House Draft (HD1) to a Senate Draft (SD1) version with substantive changes to the effective date and expenditure ceiling details. The most significant change is the effective date being updated from July 1, 3000 to July 1, 2050, which appears to be a placeholder error that needs correction. Additionally, the expenditure ceiling exceeded amount was updated from a blank field to $8,551,796 or one percent, providing specific financial context for the emergency appropriation.
Scope change
The bill's scope remains the same - emergency appropriations for collective bargaining cost items for bargaining units 1-4, 8-10, and 13-14 - but the financial thresholds and effective date have been modified.
