SCR 1 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature, 1st Called Session (2025)

Granting the legislature permission to adjourn for more than three days during the period beginning on Wednesday, July 30, 2025, and ending on Monday, August 4, 2025.

This bill (SCR 1) is a procedural resolution granting the Texas legislature permission to adjourn for more than three days during a specific six-day period (July 30-August 4, 2025). It directly affects the Texas legislature by allowing both chambers to take a longer break without violating the Texas Constitution’s requirement for mutual consent on extended adjournments. The resolution simply seeks formal approval for this scheduling change and does not create new laws or impact citizens. As a procedural measure, it has no substantive policy effects beyond facilitating the legislature’s calendar.
