The Senate returns today, and the House of Representatives will be back in session Tuesday evening. This leaves Congress with three business weeks to wrap up legislative action prior to the December 16th expiration of the continuing resolution (CR). December 16th is not a hard deadline though and it is likely Congress will consider a short-term CR to provide more time to compromise and finalize end-of-the-year priorities. For those planning holiday travel, Congress being in session through December 23rd would not be unlikely. And, if push comes to shove, they could return to complete business through January 2, 2023 as the real deadline is January 3, 2023 when the 118th Congress is sworn into session.
