Maddy summaryThe Make DC Square Again Act proposes to reverse a 19th-century decision by returning the land currently known as Arlington County and the independent City of Alexandria in Virginia back to the District of Columbia. This legislation would repeal the 1846 law that retroceded this territory to the Commonwealth of Virginia, effectively making the district ten miles square as originally intended by the Constitution. Upon enactment, federal and local laws of the District of Columbia would apply to the restored area, while existing property rights and any pending legal cases in Virginia courts would remain unaffected.
