Bill > B26-0325

This bill amends the Board of Ethics and Government Accountability Establishment and Comprehensive Ethics Reform Amendment Act of 2011 to narrow the scope of employees who are required to file public financial disclosures. Specifically, the bill removes language that previously allowed the Board of Ethics and Government Accountability to require additional employees who make decisions or participate in significant areas like contracting, procurement, grant administration, policy development, land use planning, inspections, licensing, regulation, or auditing to file financial disclosures. By striking this broad language, the bill appears to limit the Board's authority to mandate financial disclosures to a more specific, potentially smaller group of employees. The bill would take effect after mayoral approval (or potential veto override) and a standard 30-day congressional review period, which is typical for District of Columbia legislation under the Home Rule Act.
