The "Transfer of Jurisdiction Over the Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium Campus Emergency Approval Resolution of 2025" is a legislative proposal submitted by Mayor Muriel Bowser to the Council of the District of Columbia. This resolution seeks to expedite the transfer of jurisdiction over the RFK Memorial Stadium Campus from the National Park Service to the District of Columbia, as mandated by the D.C. Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium Campus Revitalization Act, which was enacted on January 6, 2025. The transfer encompasses over seven million square feet of waterfront property and is intended to facilitate the revitalization of the area, allowing for the development of housing, jobs, recreational spaces, and other amenities along the Anacostia riverfront.

The resolution emphasizes the urgency of the matter, as the federal law requires the transfer to be completed within 180 days of its enactment. By declaring an emergency, the Council aims to ensure that the necessary approvals are granted promptly, allowing the District to meet the established timeline and begin the redevelopment process. The resolution is designed to take effect immediately upon adoption, reflecting the critical nature of the jurisdiction transfer for the future use of the RFK Campus.
