Explanation

(This amendment eliminates funding for the Commission for the Commemoration of the Centennial of the Women's Right to Vote to reflect the passage of House Bill 2348. Instead of creating a commission, House Bill 2348 directed the Virginia Historical Society to develop a plan to lead the Commonwealth in commemorating the centennial anniversary of women's right to vote in 2020. The bill does create a legislative task force to work with the Historical Society to plan the Commemoration. A companion amendment in Item 1 provides $12,500 from the general fund to fund the expenses for the task force.)
