Tax and Revenue Commission Establishment Amendment Act of 2025

This bill establishes a permanent Tax and Revenue Commission in the District of Columbia to provide expert recommendations on tax code revisions and non-tax revenue policies. The Commission will analyze the tax system’s fairness, efficiency, economic impact, and racial equity implications, then propose changes to the Mayor and Council. Key duties include broadening the tax base, modernizing tax administration, assessing fees/fines, and identifying unused tax credits. The Commission will operate with a director appointed by the Council and consult an Advisory Group composed of tax experts, government officials, and community/business representatives. It directly affects District tax policy decisions and government revenue planning.
