This joint resolution seeks to disapprove an action by the District of Columbia Council, specifically its approval of the D.C. Income and Franchise Tax Conformity and Revision Temporary Amendment Act of 2025 (D.C. Act 26-217). The resolution states that Congress disapproves of this particular D.C. Act, which was enacted by the Council on December 20, 2025, and subsequently transmitted to Congress. This congressional action, if passed, would effectively nullify the temporary tax amendment act passed by the District of Columbia, preventing it from taking effect or continuing in force.
