HJRES 193 United States House · 119th Congress

Disapproving the action of the District of Columbia Council in approving the Body-Worn Camera Transparency for Use of Force Temporary Amendment Act of 2026.

This joint resolution expresses the U.S. Congress's disapproval of a specific law passed by the District of Columbia Council. The D.C. law, known as the Body-Worn Camera Transparency for Use of Force Temporary Amendment Act of 2026, was designed to increase transparency regarding how police officers use force. By submitting this resolution, Congress formally objects to the local legislation but does not change any laws or policies. The measure serves as a symbolic statement of disagreement rather than a functional change to federal or local governance.
