Congress is not in session Monday and Tuesday. It’s Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year.

The legislative branch is open for business again starting Wednesday. The short September session could end quickly thereafter whenever the six-month continuing resolution to fund the government is pau.

DC808 is still in action, but it should be a quiet couple of days.
