2. Six members of the House of Representatives appointed by the Speaker of the House, including members from each of the 2 parties holding the largest number of seats in the Legislature; and

This amendment makes changes to the membership of the task force by including 2 members of the executive branch employed in major policy-influencing positions appointed by the Governor without changing the total number of members on the task force.
