The purpose of this legislative text is to repeal a historical law that allowed the retrocession of Alexandria County from the District of Columbia back to Virginia. The bill aims to restore this area to the District of Columbia, thereby reestablishing it as part of the federal seat of government. Key provisions of the bill include the repeal of the 1846 Act that ceded Alexandria County to Virginia. Once this repeal is enacted, the territory that includes present-day Arlington County and the City of Alexandria will be restored to the District of Columbia.
