Law

Unlikely to pass

Resolutions to block D.C. laws are common but rarely succeed unless the Senate and the White House agree to override local city decisions.

Key Points

Rep. Gosar introduced a resolution to cancel a law passed by the District of Columbia Council. The local law is called the Full Accountability in Arrest Reporting Temporary Amendment Act.
Congress has the power to review and stop laws made by the D.C. government. This resolution uses that power to try and prevent the city from changing how it tracks and shares information about police arrests.
If both the House and Senate pass this and it is signed, the D.C. law will be voided. This would stop the city from moving forward with its new reporting requirements for law enforcement.
