Plain-English Summary

Congress is considering blocking a new Washington D.C. law about how police departments report arrest information, which the D.C. City Council recently approved. If passed, this resolution would overturn that local law and prevent it from taking effect. The measure affects how D.C. police handle and disclose arrest data to the public.
