Could it last longer than 30 days?. Per the DC Home Rule Act (Section 740), emergency control cannot last longer than 30 days, unless the U.S. Senate and House enact a joint resolution to extend it. A joint resolution would require a two-thirds vote majority in both chambers.

Within the DC Home Rule Act is a 48-hour limit for emergency control, unless the relevant Congressional Committees are given a reason why for the extension. This White House official said "all required correspondence has been transmitted.".
