Executive Summary: The D.C. Council is seeking to amend the D.C. Wage Theft Prevention Act less than one year after the last amendment. If passed, the amended law would substantially increase penalties, create an onerous formal hearing process, impose liability on contractors for subcontractors’ actions, and give the District the ability to suspend business licenses.
