NFL Commissioner And Washington Commanders Owner Meet On Capitol Hill

RFK Stadium is visible from Air Force One as it takes off from Andrews Air Force Base, Md., Wednesday, Nov. 29, 2017, as President Donald Trump flies to St. Louis to speak at a tax reform rally

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and Washington Commanders controlling owner Josh Harris met with congressional lawmakers on Capitol Hill to discuss securing access to the RFK Stadium site in the District of Columbia. The meetings included discussions on the RFK Stadium proposal and the security issue of drones on game days.

The Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources passed the D.C. Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium Campus Revitalization Act to the full Senate for approval. If approved, the act would transfer the land with the former stadium to the D.C. government for up to 99 years, aiming to transform the area into a community sports, recreation, and cultural amenities complex.
