Updated: Mar 27, 2025

Summary

This joint resolution, H. J. RES. 82, seeks to disapprove and nullify a specific piece of legislation enacted by the District of Columbia Council. The target of this disapproval is the Insurance Regulation Amendment Act of 2024 (D.C. Act 25-699), which was approved by the D.C. Council on January 15, 2025, and subsequently transmitted to Congress. By passing this resolution, Congress would exercise its oversight authority under the District of Columbia Home Rule Act to prevent the D.C. insurance regulation from taking effect. This action represents a direct intervention by the U.S. Congress into the legislative decisions of the District of Columbia government regarding insurance matters, effectively overturning the local council's approval of the act.
