Faster Congress review of DC emergency laws
This bill would put DC emergency laws under a faster review by Congress. These laws would still take effect right when they are enacted. The Council Chair would have to send each emergency law to the House and the Senate within 3 session days. During the 90-day window, Congress could pass a joint resolution to disapprove the law, which could stop it sooner.
