Granting the legislature permission to adjourn for more than three days during the period beginning on Wednesday, January 29, 2025, and ending on Tuesday, February 4, 2025.
This resolution grants the Texas legislature permission to adjourn for more than three days during the period January 29-February 4, 2025, as required by the Texas Constitution (Article III, Section 17). It is a routine procedural step allowing both legislative chambers to coordinate a longer break without violating constitutional limits on adjournments. The resolution was passed by both the House and Senate and filed with the Secretary of State on January 29, 2025. It does not change laws or affect the public; it simply authorizes an internal legislative schedule adjustment.
