Clarifies and expands the definition of "open meetings" in the District of Columbia.

The Open Meetings Clarification Amendment Act of 2025 amends the District of Columbia Code to expand the definition of "open meetings" to include gatherings of councilmembers. It also requires that reasonable arrangements be made to accommodate the public's right to attend meetings or allow them to view or hear the meeting. If this is not technologically feasible, the public must be allowed to view or hear the meeting as soon as practicable. The act further specifies that it does not apply to meetings between councilmembers and the Mayor if no official action is decided.
