District of Columbia Non-Discrimination Home Rule Act of 2025

The District of Columbia Non-Discrimination Home Rule Act of 2025 would amend the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 (RFRA) to remove the District of Columbia from the list of jurisdictions to which RFRA applies. In practical terms, RFRA would no longer govern or protect (or constrain) government actions in the District of Columbia. The bill retains RFRA for the federal government and other jurisdictions (such as Puerto Rico), but eliminates DC from its reach. The stated aim in the title suggests a shift toward greater DC home rule on discrimination-related matters, but the enacted text focuses solely on removing DC from RFRA’s applicability.
