DC owns RFK Stadium but the land is owned by the Federal Govt and leased to DC only for the use of RFK stadium.

Congress does have authority over DC affairs. They review all legislation before it becomes law and can modify or overturn that legislation.

My mistake. That does complicate things for a stadium in D.C., then. Nevertheless, I still believe the site itself has many advantages as the location for a new Commanders stadium. [Insert anti-Snyder rant here].
