The Honorable Phil Mendelson
Chairman
Council of the District of Columbia
John A. Wilson Building
1350 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Suite 504
Washington, DC 20004-3001

Dear Chairman Mendelson:

Pursuant to the Reprogramming Policy Act of 1980, D.C. Official Code § 47- 363(a) and the
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026, approved February 3, 2026, Pub. Law No. 119- 75, the
Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) has reviewed the Mayor’s request to reprogram
Fiscal Year 2026 Special Purpose Revenue Funds budget authority in the amount of $2,300,000
within the Department of Employment Services (DOES). Budget authority is needed to primarily
support the Unemployment Insurance Benefits System and the GeoSolutions services contractual
agreements, including professional service fees.

This action will reprogram budget authority within Unemployment Insurance division, from
Account Groups 701100C (Continuing Full Time) and 701200C (Continuing Full Time – Others)
to Account Groups 713100C (Other Services and Charges) and 713200C (Contractual Services –
Other). Funds are available based on the original appropriation but require reprogramming to meet
the agency’s current needs.
The Honorable Phil Mendelson, Chairman
FY 2026 Reprogramming Request for $2,300,000 of Special Purpose Revenue Funds Budget Authority within the

The Office of Budget and Planning’s analysis indicates that the reprogramming will not have an
adverse impact on DOES’ budget or the District’s financial plan. The OCFO has no objection to
this reprogramming request.

Sincerely,

Glen Lee
Chief Financial Officer
