Language Access Rulemaking Emergency Amendment Act of 2024
This bill authorizes the Office of Human Rights in the District of Columbia to create specific rules and regulations to enforce the Language Access Act of 2004. It directs the Mayor to issue these guidelines under the District's administrative procedures, ensuring that services and information are accessible to residents with limited English proficiency.
