District of Columbia Sister City Integrity Act

Summary

Prohibits the District of Columbia government from entering into or keeping Sister City relationships with jurisdictions located in any country designated as a "foreign adversary" under federal law. Existing Sister City relationships with such jurisdictions must be terminated by the earlier of their contractual end date or 180 days after the law takes effect. The District may not use Federal funds for liaison and outreach to the diplomatic and international communities unless it certifies to the President that it has complied with the prohibition.

• Bars the District of Columbia from forming or keeping Sister City ties with jurisdictions in countries designated as "foreign adversaries" under federal law.

• The District cannot use Federal funds for diplomatic or international liaison/outreach unless it certifies compliance with the ban to the President.
• Relies on the federal statutory definition of "foreign adversary" (10 U.S.C. § 4872(f)(2)), rather than listing specific countries in the bill text.
• Does not provide funding to support termination or compliance activities.
• Applies specifically to the District of Columbia government and activities funded with Federal dollars for diplomatic outreach.
• Changes how the District can engage in certain international and cultural exchanges with jurisdictions in covered countries.
