Plain-language change summary

The recent amendment to Bill SCR 8403 involves the replacement of a copy recipient and adds a line acknowledging Helen Sommers' legacy. Specifically, the original resolution planned to send copies to Joan Couch, who is Helen Sommers' sister, instead of forwarding to Helen directly. This change is significant because it honors Sommers' family and legacy by recognizing her sister in the resolution, which may help in engaging the public's appreciation for her contributions to the state.
