Plain-language change summary

In the latest version of House Bill 1521, the starting date for transferring funds to support warehouse and manufacturing job centers was changed from July 1, 2021, to October 1, 2021. Additionally, the bill now specifies that the initial payment will be double the amount needed for the net losses incurred due to sales tax changes.
