In a stunning, last-second twist, Congress passed federal legislation early Saturday to allow D.C. to redevelop the RFK Stadium site and potentially bring the Washington Commanders back to the city. The bill transfers control of the land to D.C. at no cost for a term of 99 years and allows for mixed-use development, including commercial, residential and a stadium. A previous email alert incorrectly said that the bill would extend the Park Service’s existing lease. |
