How the call settles
House floor calendar shows the chamber adjourning/recessing in late May 2026 and not conducting legislative business until June
Our reasoning
YES on the research record because Both chambers left Washington for the Memorial Day recess in the week after May 21, 2026 without voting on the Reconciliation 2.0 package (Roll Call, May 21: 'Reconciliation bill punted until after Memorial Day recess'). The House held only pro forma sessions and did not resume legislative business until its first vote back on Wednesday, June 3, 2026 (the Iran war powers vote).. Applied stored rule: House floor calendar shows the chamber adjourning/recessing in late May 2026 and not conducting legislative business until June.
