house 04/08/2025 - 119th Congress
We are proposing an amendment to ensure that every day during the 119th Congress's first session is recognized as a calendar day with regard to evaluating the termination of a national emergency declared on February 1, 2025. This aims to streamline the legislative process for reviewing and potentially ending national emergencies.
