Bill 119 s 614, also known as the "Alexi Navalny Way" bill, aims to designate a specific area in Washington, DC as "Alexi Navalny Way." The area in qu...
estion is Sumner Row, located between 16th Street and L Street Northwest. This bill is named after Alexi Navalny, a prominent Russian opposition leader and anti-corruption activist. If passed, this bill would officially rename this stretch of road in honor of Navalny, recognizing his efforts in fighting against corruption and advocating for democracy in Russia. The designation of "Alexi Navalny Way" would serve as a symbolic gesture of support for Navalny and his cause. It is important to note that this bill is non-partisan and does not have any direct policy implications. Its primary purpose is to honor Navalny and raise awareness of his work among the residents and visitors of Washington, DC. The bill is currently under consideration in the US Congress and its outcome is yet to be determined.
