Extending the emergency determined by the President on August 11, 2025 in the Executive Order titled "Declaring a crime emergency in the District of Columbia".

H.J. Res. 114 is a joint resolution that extends the federal determination of a crime emergency in the District of Columbia, initially announced by the President on August 11, 2025 in an executive order. The extension is authorized under section 740(d) of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act and continues the emergency until the President declares an end to it. In practical terms, this means the federal acknowledgment of a crime emergency in DC remains in effect indefinitely unless and until the President terminates it. The bill does not create new powers or funding; it simply keeps the existing emergency status active.
