 IIA  119th CONGRESS  1st Session  S. J. RES. 75  IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES   September 2, 2025   Mr. Van Hollen  (for himself,  Mr. Booker ,  Mr. Sanders ,  Mr. Kim ,  Ms. Alsobrooks ,  Mr. Padilla ,  Mr. Schiff ,  Ms. Duckworth ,  Mr. Wyden ,  Ms. Warren ,  Mr. Kaine ,  Mr. Warner , and  Mr. Welch ) introduced the following joint resolution; which was read twice and referred to the  Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs    JOINT RESOLUTION
Terminating the emergency determined by the President on August 11, 2025, in the Executive Order titled  Declaring a crime emergency in the District of Columbia .
Whereas the President has failed to identify special conditions of an emergency nature that compel the use of the Metropolitan Police Department for Federal purposes in the District of Columbia;
Whereas violent crime in the District of Columbia has declined for the past 2 years and currently stands at a 30-year low; and
Whereas the Federal Government, in 2025, has prevented the District of Columbia from spending $1,000,000,000 of its own locally raised revenues—money that was budgeted for essential public safety purposes, including law enforcement, fire and emergency response services, and schools: Now, therefore, be it
That pursuant to section 740(b) of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act (sec. 1–207.40(b), D.C. Official Code), the emergency determined by the President on August 11, 2025, in the Executive order titled  Declaring a crime emergency in the District of Columbia  is hereby terminated.
