Introduction → Enrollment · 3 edits

MINOR

This is a standard transition from introduction to enrollment for an appointment resolution. The enrolled version removes all biographical and credential material that accompanied the introduction, adds the formal resolution number (26-425) and date (June 30, 2026), and simplifies the appointment language by removing the reference to the predecessor (Heidi Tseu) and the phrase 'remainder of an unexpired 3-year term,' replacing it with simply 'for a term to end on July 1, 2027.'

TECHNICAL

All biographical and credential information about Janene D. Jackson (firm affiliation, practices, education, memberships, honors, publications, speaking engagements) was removed from the enrolled version, which is standard when a bill moves to enrollment.

The D.C. Official Code citation was shortened from section 3-1431 et seq. to section 3-1431, and the header changed from 'A PROPOSED RESOLUTION' to 'A RESOLUTION' with the assigned number 26-425.

REQUIREMENT

The appointment language changed from 'replacing Heidi Tseu, to serve the remainder of an unexpired 3-year term to end on July 1, 2027' to simply 'for a term to end on July 1, 2027,' removing the predecessor's name and the 'remainder of an unexpired term' characterization.
