The following is a statement from Washington Commanders Managing Partner Josh Harris:
"Today's approval by the Council is transformational for D.C. and brings the Commanders back to our spiritual home. Like many fans, RFK was the site of memories that fueled my love for this team and this city. Now we're closer than ever to reigniting that energy for a new generation.
"We're incredibly grateful to the Mayor and the Council throughout this process for their leadership and guidance.
"This is a historic moment. This project is about more than delivering a world-class stadium worthy of our players, fans and the region. It's about revitalizing a critical part of our city, creating thousands of jobs and unlocking long-term economic benefits for the District. We look forward to working with our fans, residents, community leaders and elected officials to deliver on this vision."
