This joint resolution extends a crime emergency declared by the President in Washington, D.C. on August 11, 2025. Under the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, the resolution allows the emergency declaration to remain in effect indefinitely until the President formally declares it has ended. The measure affects D.C. residents and federal operations in the nation's capital by maintaining whatever emergency powers and authorities the President invoked through the original executive order. No specific funding is allocated in this resolution, as it simply continues an existing emergency declaration rather than establishing a new program. The resolution was introduced in mid-August 2025 and referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
