Plain-language change summary

The bill has been updated to clarify the categories of spending that count toward the project goals for the Children's National Research and Innovation Campus redevelopment. It expands the definition of "materials" to include specific services like design and construction management, ensuring that all relevant expenses are considered. This change is significant because it helps provide a clearer framework for the project, holding the healthcare provider accountable for meeting spending goals with certified small businesses, which can ultimately support local economic growth.
