The bill, titled the Official Sports Capital of the United States Designation Act of 2025, aims to officially designate the District of Columbia as the only Official Sports Capital of the United States. It mandates the Washington Convention and Sports Authority (Events DC) to create and execute a plan that promotes and enhances the District's status as a premier destination for sports events, teams, and activities. The bill outlines various initiatives, including attracting major sporting events, increasing investment in youth sports, and developing partnerships with local teams to engage the community.

The legislation emphasizes the District's rich sports culture, its history of hosting significant sporting events, and its unique position as the nation's capital, which contributes to its suitability for this designation. Additionally, it highlights the importance of fostering equity and inclusivity in sports and the potential economic benefits of this official designation, such as boosting tourism and national recognition. Events DC is required to submit a report to the Council detailing the implementation of the plan within 120 days of the act's effective date.
