The U.S. House passed a bipartisan deal this week backing the District’s plan to offer a new, rebuilt RFK Stadium as the future home of the Washington Commanders. The legislation is expected to pass in the Senate and be approved by President Biden.
Tonight’s vote was a significant step forward in our efforts to unlock the full potential of the RFK Campus — for our residents and visitors, the community, and DC’s Comeback. H.R. 4984 received overwhelming, bipartisan support and we want to thank House Oversight Chair James Comer, Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton and all of the co-sponsors for championing this legislation. We look forward to working with the Senate to swiftly advance this legislation. – Mayor Bowser
