The proposed bill involves a modification to Contract No. DCCB-2020-F-0029 with Hausfeld, LLP, allowing the Office of the Attorney General to exercise option period one for legal services related to an investigation and potential litigation against Amazon.com, Inc. The modification is set for a not-to-exceed amount of $55,000,000, with the performance period extending from September 17, 2025, through September 16, 2027. The contract is structured as a contingency fee agreement, where Hausfeld, LLP will receive a percentage of any gross recovery made by the District, with reimbursement for other direct costs as authorized.

Additionally, the contract modification includes updates to the names and contact information of the contracting officers and incorporates the latest U.S. Department of Labor Wage Determination and the updated D.C. Living Wage Act of 2006 Notice and Fact Sheet. The total not-to-exceed amount for this option period remains at $55,000,000, consistent with the financial plan and budget adopted by the District. All other terms and conditions of the contract remain unchanged.
