What this bill would do
This bill is known as the CLEAN DC Act of 2025. Its main purpose is to repeal the Comprehensive Policing and Justice Reform Amendment Act of 2022 that was passed by the District of Columbia Council. By doing this, it restores the laws that were changed or repealed by that 2022 Act back to how they were before. However, the bill includes specific exceptions where parts of the 2022 Act will not be repealed. These exceptions cover specific sections outlined in the D.C. Official Code.
