This resolution extends the President’s declared “crime emergency” in Washington, DC. It keeps the emergency status in place that was set on August 11, 2025, so the special measures tied to that declaration can continue in the city .
Here are the basics:
| Key point | What it means |
|---|---|
| Who is affected | People who live in, work in, or visit Washington, DC |
| What changes | The crime emergency remains in effect rather than ending |
| Timing | It extends the emergency that began August 11, 2025 |
