Bill 118 HRES 97 is a legislative measure that sets the stage for the consideration of three important pieces of legislation in the US Congress. The first bill, H.R. 185, aims to terminate the requirement set by the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for foreign travelers to provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination. This bill also includes provisions for other purposes related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The second piece of legislation to be considered is a joint resolution, H.J. Res. 24, which seeks to disapprove of the action taken by the District of Columbia Council in approving the Local Resident Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2022. This resolution addresses the voting rights of residents in the District of Columbia and the decision made by the local government in this regard.

The third item on the agenda is another joint resolution, H.J. Res. 26, which aims to disapprove of the action taken by the District of Columbia Council in approving the Revised Criminal Code Act of 2022. This resolution focuses on the criminal justice system in the District of Columbia and the changes made to the criminal code by the local government. Overall, Bill 118 HRES 97 sets the framework for the discussion and consideration of these three important pieces of legislation in the US Congress, each addressing different aspects of public health, voting rights, and criminal justice in the District of Columbia.
