PR 26-0295 Legislature · 26th Council Period (2025-2026)

Residential Tranquility Second Congressional Review Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2025

This is a procedural resolution (not a substantive bill) to prevent a legal gap. It declares an emergency to ensure continuity between two related laws: the temporary "Residential Tranquility Emergency Amendment Act of 2025" (expiring October 19, 2025) and the permanent "Residential Tranquility Amendment Act of 2025" (projected to take effect November 8, 2025). The resolution authorizes immediate adoption of the emergency measure without full legislative review to avoid a lapse in the existing protections regarding demonstrations and projectiles in residential zones. It takes effect immediately upon passage.
