Disapproving the action of the District of Columbia Council in approving the Local Resident Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2022.

This joint resolution would overturn a District of Columbia law that allows noncitizen residents to vote in local elections. If enacted, the resolution would nullify the "Local Resident Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2022," effectively prohibiting noncitizens from casting ballots for local offices such as Mayor, City Council, and the Board of Education.

The practical impact would be to restrict voting in all District of Columbia elections exclusively to U.S. citizens, regardless of a resident's legal permanent status or length of residency in the city. While the resolution passed the House of Representatives in early 2023, it has not been approved by the Senate, allowing the District's noncitizen voting law to remain in effect.
