HR 5107 would repeal D.C.'s 2022 police reform law and restore the pre-2022 policing rules.

35-second read · 4 questions answered below

What does this do?

HR 5107, the "CLEAN DC Act," would cancel D.C.'s Comprehensive Policing and Justice Reform Amendment Act of 2022. That local law changed rules on police use of force, discipline, and public access to disciplinary records. If repealed, the older rules that existed before 2022 would automatically return.

Who does it affect?

The bill directly affects D.C. residents, police officers, and city officials. It has no effect on policing laws in U.S. states.

Why does it matter?

Because Congress holds special authority over D.C. law, it can override decisions made by D.C.'s elected council. This bill would reverse local police accountability reforms without action by D.C.'s own government.
