Personal Delivery Device Weight Limit Congressional Review Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2026

This resolution declares an emergency to allow the District of Columbia Council to immediately amend the Personal Delivery Device Act of 2018, which currently restricts delivery devices to 90 pounds. The bill aims to close a legal gap that would occur between the expiration of a temporary emergency measure and the final passage of a permanent weight limit increase. By invoking a congressional review emergency, the Council seeks to bypass standard legislative delays to ensure continuous legal coverage for newer, heavier delivery models. This action directly affects companies operating personal delivery devices and addresses the fact that many other states permit significantly heavier equipment.
