The laws may only be enacted and amended by the DC Council. Both the DC Council and the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board may enact regulations interpreting those laws. The Board can enact new regulations through the rulemaking process and in accordance with the authority granted by Title 25. As part of the legislative process, the Council may also choose to amend Title 23.
