Deadline Accountability Amendment Act of 2025

Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill, the "Deadline Accountability Amendment Act of 2025," changes the Freedom of Information Act in the District of Columbia. It states that if a government agency misses a deadline to provide a report or document to the Council, the "deliberative process privilege" can no longer be used to hide draft versions of that document from public records requests. This aims to hold agencies accountable for timely reporting and allows the Mayor to request a 30-day deadline extension from the Council.
