What the agency says
The Legal Services Corporation's (LSC) FY 2024 appropriation enacted on March 9, 2024, included language that lowered the proportion of attorneys required to serve on the governing bodies of LSC grant recipients from 60% to 33%, and eliminated the requirement that bar associations appoint the majority of attorneys. This final rule revises LSC's regulation pertaining to recipient governing bodies to be consistent with this directive from Congress.
