Congress overturns a District of Columbia tax measure. The resolution disapproves the D.C. Income and Franchise Tax Conformity and Revision Temporary Amendment Act of 2025 (D.C. Act 26-217), which the Council of the District of Columbia enacted on December 20, 2025 and transmitted to Congress on December 30, 2025 under the District of Columbia Home Rule Act. Under the Home Rule Act's review process, this disapproval blocks the D.C. Act from taking effect.
Each stop is a step the bill’s own record states, with the date it happened. A ring is a step not yet taken. A bill becomes law when the President signs it or Congress overrides a veto.
At least 16 organizations named this measure in a lobbying filing. A floor, not a total: they were counted by the client name on 24 quarterly reports filed by 2 lobbying firms and by 14 organizations lobbying for themselves in 2026 Q1, 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3. An organization that lobbied this measure without naming it is not counted here.
The filings record that lobbying was reported on the measure. The form has no per-bill dollar figure and no field for a position, so nothing here says how much was spent or which side an organization took.
5 of them, in no ranking: National Council of Jewish Women; Center for American Progress Action Fund; Center for Law and Social Policy (CLASP); Small Business & Entrepreneurship Council (Sbe Council); Federal City Council. Listed as filed, in the order the filings were read, and 11 others are not shown. These are not the largest, the earliest or the most active: we keep five names per measure, and the filings give no ranking.
From the LD-2 quarterly lobbying filings published at lda.gov by the Senate Office of Public Records. Read for 2025 Q1, 2025 Q2, 2025 Q3, 2025 Q4, 2026 Q1, 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3. Our copy holds 24 fewer filings for 2025 Q1, 39 fewer filings for 2025 Q2, 42 fewer filings for 2025 Q3, 33 fewer filings for 2025 Q4, 28 fewer filings for 2026 Q1, 48 fewer filings for 2026 Q2 and 218 fewer filings for 2026 Q3 than the Senate's register counts, so those quarters are the filings we could read rather than every one filed. 2026 Q4 is still inside its filing window, so that quarter is only the filings posted so far.
