D.C. State Board of Education Expanded Authority Amendment Act of 2025

This bill expands the D.C. State Board of Education's authority over education policy implementation. It allows the Board to formally request specific policy actions from DC government entities (like the Office of the State Superintendent) via a letter signed by five board members, with a 90-day response window. If entities fail to comply, the Board can require action through a two-thirds majority resolution, mandating policy submission within six months. The bill also gives the Board power to demand education-related data from agencies within 15 business days, and requires government entities to give "great weight" to the Board's recommendations in their decision-making, including written justifications for any deviations.
