Arena Safety Conformity Congressional Review Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2026

Summary

The Council of the District of Columbia adopted a resolution declaring an emergency so that safety rules covering the Downtown and Southeast arenas can be added to the 1977 public‑safety law without interruption. It prevents a lapse between the expiration of a short‑term emergency amendment (July 7, 2026) and the start date of a longer‑term temporary amendment that has been passed but not yet effective. The measure takes effect immediately and allows the amendment to be adopted after a single reading.
