MODERATE

The bill transitioned from an Engrossed version to an Enrolled version, marking its final passage into law. The substantive content regarding confirmed appointments remained largely unchanged, though formatting was adjusted for the official enrolled version. One appointment was removed (Virginia Racing Commission), and several formatting inconsistencies were corrected.

TECHNICAL

The appointment of Stephanie Nixon to the Virginia Racing Commission was removed from the confirmed appointments list in the enrolled version.

Formatting and layout were adjusted to conform to official enrolled bill standards, including adding session dates, chamber approval dates, and removing committee referral language.

The Education Commission of the States appointment entry was removed in the enrolled version, likely due to duplication or error correction.

The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority appointment entry was removed in the enrolled version.

The Board of Juvenile Justice appointment entry was removed in the enrolled version.
