Plain-English Summary

This bill would give the District of Columbia more control over its own National Guard operations instead of having them controlled by the federal government, similar to how states manage their National Guard units. The change would affect how the D.C. National Guard is organized, funded, and deployed, potentially giving local leaders more say in military readiness decisions that affect the district. This is part of a broader effort to expand D.C.'s self-governance in areas traditionally reserved for the federal government.
