Foundation of the Federal Bar Association Charter Amendments Act of 2025

This law updates the rules for the Foundation of the Federal Bar Association, a legally established organization, by moving many of its governing decisions out of its official charter and into its bylaws, which are easier to change. It removes the requirement that the organization be based in Washington, D.C., and lets the board of directors decide where its main office is located. The law also says that directors and officers cannot use their roles to get involved in political activities, and it sets rules about how the organization's money can be used, including allowing reasonable pay and expense coverage for officers, directors, and employees. If the organization ever shuts down, any leftover money or property would be distributed as the board decides, rather than being sent to the U.S. Treasury.
