The House is typically back in session when Congress is in its regular voting period, which for 2025 has included sessions resuming after recesses and special sessions as needed. The specific return date depends on the current calendar and any recesses or leadership decisions. Key points to know:
- The House schedules its own sessions and recesses; the Speaker can call the chamber back into session as circumstances require. In recent cycles, the House has returned in mid-to-late November or earlier for pivotal votes, but exact dates shift with negotiations, continuing resolutions, and budget deadlines. If you’re tracking a particular year (like 2025), check the latest official House calendar or announcements from the Speaker’s office for the exact return date.
