The U.S. Senate and House of Representatives are preparing for a five-week summer recess. Federal representatives will spend the time in their home districts meeting with constituents and preparing for the upcoming midterm elections. During this period, all legislative work and bills will be put on pause until the members of Congress return. This schedule allows representatives to be more present in their local communities while the national legislative agenda is temporarily suspended.
