About this vote

Congress can block acts of the District of Columbia Council through a joint resolution of disapproval. H.J.Res. 142 disapproves the D.C. Income and Franchise Tax Conformity and Revision Temporary Amendment Act of 2025; according to the Congressional Research Service summary, this reinstates provisions of D.C. tax law that conform with federal tax law, which D.C. generally adopts automatically. A motion to proceed is the vote on whether the Senate will begin considering a measure. The motion passed, so the Senate took up the resolution.
