This just in… House comes back Monday, Senate on Wednesday

Posted in:

* 11:44 am - From the House Speaker’s office…

The House will reconvene Session on Monday, May 24 at 4 p.m.

In addition Members should plan on Session for Tuesday, May 25 and Wednesday, May 26.

Some House Committees will be posted for Monday, May 24 at 3 p.m., just prior to Session convening that day.

*** 2:11 pm *** Senate President John Cullerton has told his members that their chamber will return on Wednesday, May 26th at 4 o’clock pm…

Members should make appropriate preparations for Session through Friday, May 28th. I would anticipate not spending Memorial Day weekend in Session, though it may be necessary depending on actions taken in the House of Representatives.

Cullerton’s memo is here.

  3. I don’t know what you two are talking about that looks like three days and they’re done to me.

  4. “Who’s gonna be marching in all the Memorial Day parades?”

    Don’t worry, Memorial Day isn’t until May 31 this year…

  5. Uh, if the bet is a budget in 3 days, I’ll take the over all day. A 6 month budget or one that violates the constitution does not count. Where to I send my bet!

  6. Now that they have decided to surrender to the massive debt, our legislators have decided to take a siesta during their surrender negociations.

  7. Budget? Budget? We don’t need no stinking budget.

  8. agrees with blue skies, 3 days and out. But only because they are going to do a 7 month budget and not really try to figure anything out. And that’s perfectly constitutional, right? After all they wouldn’t do it if it wasn’t legal. Then they’ll come back in January and do the real budget and the economy will have rebounded and revenues will be up and everything will just be easy!

  9. == A 6 month budget or one that violates the constitution does not count.==
    What other kind is there here in the Land of Lincoln where we always make the will of the people the law of the land?

  10. Can we pass the hat for donations to fly in Andre Dawson and Tony Perez to be waiting on them when they return.

  11. It is for times such as this that I signed the bill repealing prohibition. Drink up folks! - FDR
