House lawmakers removed the RFK provision from a spending package, crushing hopes for D.C. to reclaim federal land for redevelopment and a new Commanders home.

The RFK proposal had gained significant bipartisan support but ultimately succumbed to intensified opposition, primarily driven by political figures like Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
As Congress prepares to vote on a vital spending bill, the fate of D.C.'s RFK site restoration hangs in balance amidst looming government shutdown concerns.
