B 25-1071 District of Columbia · 25th Council Period (2023-2024)

Language Access Rulemaking Temporary Amendment Act of 2024

This bill temporarily amends the Language Access Act of 2004 to allow the Office of Human Rights to create specific rules for implementing language access requirements in the District of Columbia. The legislation authorizes the Mayor to issue regulations that define how government agencies and other covered entities must provide services and documents in languages other than English. The changes are set to expire 225 days after they take effect, ensuring the rulemaking authority is limited to a specific timeframe.
