Flexible Rent Subsidy Program Amendment Act of 2025

This bill makes the District of Columbia's Flexible Rent Subsidy Pilot Program (DC Flex) permanent, replacing its temporary authorization set to expire in 2026. It provides eligible homeless or at-risk DC residents with a fixed annual subsidy - $9,600 for families and $8,280 for individuals (before October 2027), with higher amounts after that - to cover partial rent payments. The subsidy is deposited into a dedicated escrow account, which participants can only use for rent, not withdrawn as cash. Unlike housing vouchers that cover full rent, DC Flex offers "shallow" partial rent assistance, aiming to prevent homelessness while providing stability.
