Comments
The headline on this bill needs to be changed (both here and on the GA site) -- the headline refers to $500,000; the bill says $1,000,000.
Our data comes straight from the General Assembly's site. Were I to edit the title here, it would simply revert to $500,000 at the top of the next hour, when next Richmond Sunlight is synched with the General Assembly's site. (Otherwise our bill titles wouldn't be updated when they're retitled by their patrons.) The typos are frustrating enough, but this is the first instance that I've seen of a bill title that's wrong.
Yes.. typos are frustrating. Your site has the wrong summary ("summary as introduced")... the GA is correct... "summary as passed".
