Summary — SCR 9: A Concurrent Resolution to Prescribe the Legislative Schedule

Status: Referred to Secretary for Record
Introduced: January 27, 2025 (Filed/received by Secretary of the Senate)
Principal sponsor: Senator Sam Singh
Classification: Concurrent resolution (legislative scheduling)

Main purpose

SCR 9 is a concurrent resolution that sets a temporary adjournment (a legislative recess) for both chambers of the Legislature. Its purpose is purely procedural: to prescribe when the Senate and House will reconvene after a fall adjournment.

Key provisions

  • When the Senate adjourns on Thursday, November 13, 2025, it will stand adjourned until Tuesday, December 2, 2025, at 10:00 a.m.
  • When the House of Representatives adjourns on Thursday, November 13, 2025, it will stand adjourned until Tuesday, December 2, 2025, at 1:30 p.m.
  • The resolution directs the Secretary of the Senate to transmit copies for appropriate distribution and to record the resolution per legislative practice.

Who is affected

  • Primary effect: Members, staff, and operations of the Senate and House (scheduling of floor sessions, committee activity, staff duties, and public access to floor proceedings).
  • Secondary/indirect effects: Stakeholders planning to testify, lobbyists, media, and members of the public who follow or participate in legislative activity during the adjournment period.

Procedural and timeline notes

  • Concurrent resolutions set internal legislative business and require adoption by both chambers. They do not create binding public law and typically do not require the Governor’s signature.
  • SCR 9 was introduced and acted on during the 2025 session cycle. According to the legislative actions, it was introduced/considered on November 13, 2025, adopted by the Senate with rules suspended, received and adopted in the House, and subsequently referred to the Secretary for record.
  • Because this is a scheduling resolution, no fiscal committee review or fiscal impact is indicated.

Impact summary

SCR 9 imposes a defined recess from Nov 13 to Dec 2, 2025, with specified reconvening times for each chamber. The resolution organizes legislative operations during that period and provides certainty for planning, but it does not change policy, appropriations, or statutory law.
