Special Education for Young Adults in the Custody of the Department of Corrections Congressional Review Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2025

This is a procedural resolution (not a substantive bill) declaring an emergency to prevent a gap in special education services. It authorizes the Council of the District of Columbia to pass the "Special Education for Young Adults in the Custody of the Department of Corrections Congressional Review Emergency Amendment Act of 2025" after a single reading, rather than through the standard process. The resolution addresses a timing gap between the expiration of an existing emergency special education law (D.C. Act 26-42) on July 10, 2025, and the effective date of a pending temporary law (Bill 26-211). It does not change educational requirements but ensures continuity of services for young adults in District Department of Corrections custody.
