The U.S. Senate and House of Representatives are preparing to begin a five-week summer recess. During this period, federal representatives will travel to their home districts to engage with constituents and prepare for the upcoming midterm elections. While the representatives are away, all legislative work and pending bills will be held in pause until the session resumes. This period allows lawmakers to provide more direct service to their people while the legislative agenda is temporarily suspended.
