Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This joint resolution would have Congress formally disapprove a law passed by the Council of the District of Columbia. The law is the Full Accountability in Arrest Reporting Temporary Amendment Act of 2026 (D.C. Act 26-304), which the Council enacted on April 29, 2026. Under the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, D.C. laws are sent to Congress for review, and a disapproval resolution passed by Congress would block the D.C. law from taking effect. The resolution text does not describe what the D.C. law itself requires.
