Crime in Washington, D.C., is plaguing everyone from longtime citizens to Capitol Hill lawmakers, and Congress and the Council of the District of Columbia, often at odds over the epidemic, are taking matters into their own hands on Tuesday.

The House Oversight Committee will meet in the morning to mark up H.R. 5798, known as the Protecting Our Nation’s Capital Emergency Act of 2023. Later that same day, the D.C. Council will hold its first vote on the Secure D.C. Omnibus bill, legislation comprised of multiple proposals aimed to address concerns that arose following the passage of prior crime legislation.
