Monthly Legislative Introductions: The report below is a listing of all newly introduced legislative measures the DC Council will consider during the two year Council Period.
This Report was Prepared by American Management Corporation

Committee of the Whole & Additional Legislative Meeting

Good afternoon,

On Tuesday, September 18, 2018, the DC Council convened its first Committee of the Whole and additional Legislative meeting upon their return from summer recess. The Council considered a number of emergency measures, ceremonial resolutions, and contracts in addition to first and final readings of legislation under Council review.

Introductions from the Dias
The next four months are particularly important for the Council because they’re the final ones of this two-year council period which concludes at noon on January 2, 2019. Any introduced legislative items that are not approved by the last day of the council period, essentially “die” due to lack of action, and must be re-introduced in the new Council Period.

In addition to their already robust legislative schedule, Councilmembers began the fall legislative session introducing several new measures. The Mayor also introduced several measures that are also listed below. These measures, like all the others will be subject to public hearings and two Council votes prior the end of the Council period. Otherwise, they will have to be reintroduced in the next council period.

 

Councilmember Jack Evans


B22-0944 - Sports Wagering Lottery Amendment Act of 2018

As introduced, the bill will legalize sports betting in the District while also creating strong regulatory structures that ensure consumer confidence. A portion of the revenue generated from sports betting may go to partially fund the recently passed “Birth-to-three for All DC Act” which promotes early childhood wellness programs.
