District of Columbia Attorney General Appointment Reform Act

This bill vests the President with the authority to appoint the Attorney General for the District of Columbia (DC) for a term that coincides with the term of office of the President. The bill provides that the appointment is not subject to confirmation in the Senate.

Under current DC law, the Attorney General is elected by DC voters for a four-year term that coincides with the term of office of the DC Mayor.

The bill additionally provides that the term of the current Attorney General ends on the date of the bill's enactment.
