A bill to repeal the Open Meetings Clarification Emergency Amendment Act of 2025 enacted by the District of Columbia Council.

# S 1450 Summary **What the Bill Would Do** This bill would repeal (cancel) an emergency law that the District of Columbia City Council passed in 2025 called the "Open Meetings Clarification Emergency Amendment Act." The bill would undo whatever changes that D.C. law made to rules about public access to government meetings in Washington, D.C. **Who It Affects and Current Status** The bill primarily affects D.C. residents and anyone who attends D.C. government meetings. It was introduced by Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) and is currently in committee, meaning it's being reviewed but hasn't advanced for a full vote yet.

The bill doesn't include detailed information about what specific changes the D.C. law made, so the exact impact of repealing it isn't clear from the bill summary alone. This is a federal bill attempting to override a local D.C. law.
