The Senate's published 2026 calendar sets a recess after the first week of August, with sessions scheduled through roughly August 7-8 before adjournment until mid-September. Senate Majority Leader John Thune has indicated intent to advance a continuing resolution on appropriations before the break, aligning with standard end-of-session procedures and historical patterns for August district work periods. Recent House action on a short-term funding measure has added pressure to conclude floor business quickly, though any unresolved votes or holds could extend the session by a day or two. Traders assign a 61% probability to recess by August 8, reflecting the calendar's clear timeline tempered by the narrow window for legislative completion. No major procedural changes or emergency sessions have been announced as of early August.
