District of Columbia Housing Authority Stabilization and Reform Emergency Amendment Act of 2025
This bill creates a temporary "Stabilization and Reform Board" to govern the District of Columbia Housing Authority (DCHA), replacing its previous governing board. The new board requires 9 voting members with specific expertise (including housing development, affordable housing, federal regulations, and resident/voucher holder perspectives) and includes non-voting members from key city offices. It directly affects DCHA operations and the 50,000+ residents living in DCHA-managed housing by mandating the board to take specific actions to reform and revitalize the agency. The bill establishes this structure as an emergency measure to address DCHA's operational challenges.
