HR 2522 United States House · 119th Congress

To designate the area between the intersections of 18th Street Northwest and Church Street Northwest, and 18th Street Northwest and P Street Northwest, in the District of Columbia as "Jimmy Lai Way", and for other purposes.

HR 2522 designates a specific area in Washington, D.C. (between 18th Street Northwest and Church Street Northwest, and between 18th Street Northwest and P Street Northwest) as "Jimmy Lai Way" and redesignates the address 1520 18th Street Northwest as 1 Jimmy Lai Way Northwest. The bill requires the General Services Administration to install signs bearing the new name at designated street corners and nearby Federal property. This is a symbolic gesture, with no legal or financial obligations, primarily updating federal references to the location. The bill’s preamble includes congressional findings on Jimmy Lai’s detention but does not alter U.S. policy toward Hong Kong.
