What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "Democracy in Design Act," directs the Administrator of General Services to follow specific architectural guidelines. It requires that the design of public buildings in the United States adheres to the principles found in a 1962 report titled "Guiding Principles for Federal Architecture." The Administrator must create new regulations to implement these changes and establish minimum standards for public building design. This process includes a requirement for notice and a period for public comment.
