What it does
The Democracy in Design Act would require the Administrator of General Services to ensure that the design of public buildings in the United States follows the guiding principles for Federal architecture outlined in a 1962 report by the Ad Hoc Committee on Federal Office Space. It mandates that the Administrator issue regulations within 180 days of enactment to implement these principles and establish minimum design standards for federal buildings, using a public notice-and-comment rulemaking process. The bill affects federal public building design and the General Services Administration’s oversight of such projects.
