Disapproving the action of the District of Columbia Council in approving the Open Meetings Clarification Temporary Amendment Act of 2025.
This joint resolution (HJRES 109) is a procedural measure disapproving the District of Columbia Council’s approval of its own "Open Meetings Clarification Temporary Amendment Act of 2025" (D.C. Act 26-86). It does not change District law but formally rejects the Council’s action, as required under the District of Columbia Home Rule Act. The resolution specifically targets the Council’s June 2025 approval of the temporary amendment to open meetings rules. This disapproval resolution must be passed by Congress to take effect.
