It's an unofficial directory, address book, and telephone listing of who's who in District government and in the organizations that influence and run DC government behind the scenes. The Advisory Commission on Sentencing was established by the Council of the District of Columbia in 1998 to review and analyze sentencing data, and to make recommendations regarding criminal sentencing reforms. Advisory Neighborhood Commissioners are the lowest, most local level of elected government officials. Each Commissioner represents about two thousand residents, and is elected to a two-year term in non-partisan contests at the general election in November. Commissioners are unpaid, and have no real authority or power but their advice is supposed to be given "great weight" by District government officials, departments, and agencies. Commissioners are grouped into Commissions. Each of the eight wards of the city has between three and six Commissions. The Auditor does investigative audits of District government departments, agencies, and programs for the DC City Council. Some of its audits are available on-line here.

In these three cases, the complainants allege that the University discriminated in its programs and activities against them and other students with visual disabilities. OCR is responsible for enforcing certain Federal civil rights statutes and regulations, including Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Section 504) and its implementing regulation, which prohibit discrimination on the basis of disability in programs and activities that receive Federal financial assistance from the Department. OCR also has jurisdiction as a designated agency under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (Title II) and its implementing regulation, which prohibit discrimination against qualified individuals with disabilities by public entities. The University receives Federal financial assistance from the Department, is a public entity, and is therefore subject to the provisions of Section 504, Title II, and their implementing regulations. Accordingly, OCR has jurisdiction over these complaints.

Extractions: N/A The District had a voluntary Medicaid managed care program for AFDC people from 1993 to 1998. At that time, beneficiaries could choose between a Primary Care Case Management (PCCM) program or an HMO. In the mid-nineties, Head Start/Families USA surveyed 140 households, and learned that 80% had been defaulted into HMOs and had not selected a PCCM. In 1998, the District started a mandatory Medicaid managed care program pursuant to a §1915(b) waiver. Only MCOs participate in the program. The program covers AFDC (and related) individuals up to 200% of poverty and includes a CHIP expansion. There are seven MCOs in the program. The program excludes: nursing home residents, people eligible for Medicaid for less than three months, foster children and restricted recipients. See D.C. Code Ann. §1-359(d)(2)(B) (1995)

Extractions: Some important events occurred at the end of 2002 that cannot be overlooked even though the 2003 legislative sessions have begun and raise new challenges. New Jersey struck another decisive blow for patient safety, and the District of Columbia recognized anesthesiologist assistants (AAs). That is the good news. Montana, meanwhile, continues to work to retain the requirement for physician supervision of nurse anesthetists. In addition, the New Jersey Department of Health adopted final regulations relating to surgery, anesthesia and postanesthesia care in ambulatory care facilities and hospitals. These regulations continue to require that a nurse anesthetist be supervised by a physician who is an anesthesiologist or who is privileged by a hospital to manage anesthesia.
Extractions: Welcome Letter The Department of Banking and Financial Institutions (DBFI) is working to ensure a sound and thriving financial services community that provides the products, credit and capital that will enable District of Columbia residents to improve the quality of their lives. DBFI is using innovative approaches in creating a structured, positive regulatory environment for banks and other financial institutions doing business here, and comprehensive and fair conditions for the citizens they serve. Over the past 18 months, DBFI has developed legislation and programs that are creating a level playing field for businesses and providing new financial services and education for consumers. Partnerships are important to our work. For example, DBFI partners with local and national organizations to: conduct workshops, seminars and fairs on such topics as predatory lending, home-buying and financial literacy; find new sources of matching funds to help citizens buy homes, launch new businesses and pay for education and other major expenses; and improve rules and regulations. During 2001, legislation became effective whereby OBFI changed from the Office of Banking and Financial Institutions (OBFI) to the Department of Banking and Financial Institutions (DBFI), and the Superintendent's title changed to Commissioner. This change, along with other initiatives, puts the department on similar footing with other state banking departments and signals the District Government's commitment to following world-class financial practices. Also noteworthy are changes that modernize the District of Columbia's Bank Code and provide new services.
