House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., on Wednesday released the chamber’s legislative calendar for 2025, and it largely follows a similar pattern to previous years.

The calendar features just one planned four-week period in session before the August recess, with holiday breaks following a traditional schedule, including two weeks around the time of Easter and Passover. The long work stretch would come in the spring, spanning four straight weeks from the end of April until the Memorial Day weekend.

The House Republican majority will be working during the early part of the year to advance President-elect Donald Trump’s agenda, with the likely need for quick action on a budget resolution to provide for the reconciliation process, which would allow the Senate to advance legislation with a simple majority. And with government funding expected to be extended this month through a continuing resolution into the spring, lawmakers have another big item on their to-do list for the first half of 2025.

On the funding front, Scalise’s calendar includes planning for what may be the inevitable. The House is scheduled to be in session for two days, September 29 and 30, during what would otherwise be a two-week recess that aligns with the Jewish holidays of Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur. That’s important because leadership is essentially accounting for the likelihood of must-pass appropriations work at the end of fiscal 2025 — or September 30 — to avert a government shutdown.

After that, House lawmakers should plan to spend the rest of October in Washington, with only a long weekend planned for the federal holiday of Columbus Day.

The Senate calendar has not yet been released.
