The legislation notes that Alexei Navalny was a Russian political dissident and activist who fought corruption and promoted democratic freedoms. The bill seeks to rename the area near the official residence of the Russian Ambassador to the United States. Additionally, the District of Columbia would be responsible for constructing two specific street signs for this designation.
