Bill Summary
A BILL To amend title 29, District of Columbia Official Code, to treat meetings held by nonprofit organizations with officials of the Federal Government which are held in the District of Columbia at locations owned or leased by the Federal Government as activities not constituting doing business in the District of Columbia for purposes of determining whether such organizations are required to register with the District of Columbia.
AI Summary
This bill amends the District of Columbia Official Code to clarify that nonprofit organizations holding meetings with federal government officials in federally-owned or leased locations in Washington, D.C. will not be considered as "doing business" in the District of Columbia. Specifically, the bill adds a new provision to the existing law that exempts nonprofit organizations described under section 501(c) of the Internal Revenue Code (which typically includes charitable, educational, and other tax-exempt organizations) from being required to register with the District of Columbia when they meet with Members of Congress, federal employees, or government representatives at federal government facilities. This change aims to reduce administrative burdens on nonprofit organizations and facilitate easier interactions between nonprofits and federal government officials by removing a potential registration requirement that could discourage such meetings.
