The proposed $3.7 billion deal to bring the Washington Commanders back to D.C. is framed as nearly certain, with Mayor Bowser celebrating the agreement. However, opposition remains strong within the D.C. Council, where members express concerns about the financial burden, which could exceed $1 billion for taxpayers. Council member Charles Allen argues the council needs to weigh in on the mayor's negotiation. The deal requires a majority council vote by mid-July for public financing, highlighting significant hurdles ahead despite initial enthusiasm.
