A District of Columbia tax act is disapproved
What the document says“That the Congress disapproves of the action of the District of Columbia Council described as follows: The D.C. Income and Franchise Tax Conformity and Revision Temporary Amendment Act of 2025 (D.C. Act 26-217), enacted by the Council of the District of Columbia on December 20, 2025, and transmitted to Congress pursuant to section 602(c)(1) of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act on December 30, 2025.”
A disapproval of an act of the District of Columbia Council under section 602(c)(1) of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, which gives Congress a window to reject an act the Council has passed. The resolution names the act and the dates it was passed and sent, and gives no reason.
What the document actually says“That the Congress disapproves of the action of the District of Columbia Council described as follows: The D.C. Income and Franchise Tax Conformity and Revision Temporary Amendment Act of 2025 (D.C. Act 26-217), enacted by the Council of the District of Columbia on December 20, 2025, and transmitted to Congress pursuant to section 602(c)(1) of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act on December 30, 2025.”
Congress says no to a tax law passed by the city council in Washington.
Washington, D.C. is not a state. Its council passes laws. But Congress may say no within a set time. The council passed a tax law in December 2025. Congress voted to reject it. The resolution gives no reason.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
