Referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
This bill would move most federal agency headquarters out of the Washington, D.C. metro area. Each agency would have to pick a new city, aim to save money, and make sure no more than 10% of its staff stays in the D.C. area after the move. Agencies must also think about national security when choosing where to go. Plans are due to Congress by September 30, 2026, and the moves must be finished by September 30, 2030, with oversight from the Office of Management and Budget and the General Services Administration to check that plans meet these rules.
The bill also removes an old rule that kept agency offices in Washington, D.C., clearing the way for these relocations to happen nationwide.
