The bill submitted by Mayor Muriel Bowser outlines the proposed FY 2025 Grant Budget Modifications for the District of Columbia, as mandated by the Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025. The modifications include various federal and private grants aimed at establishing programs across different agencies, such as the Department of Transportation and the Office of the State Superintendent of Education. Notable requests include $2,000,000 for the Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Technology grant and $4,572,851.68 for the National School Lunch program.

The budget modifications are designed to enhance services without increasing the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) positions, as indicated by the zero FTE requests for most grants. The Mayor's office has made provisions for further discussion regarding these modifications, encouraging the Council to reach out to the Deputy Budget Director for any inquiries. Overall, the bill aims to secure funding for essential programs while maintaining fiscal responsibility.
