Vote Breakdown

Plain Language Summary

This resolution sets a scheduled break in the 2025 legislative session, requiring the North Carolina House and Senate to adjourn on Thursday, April 17, 2025, and reconvene on Monday, April 28, 2025, at noon. The resolution establishes an 11-day recess during the spring legislative period.

Arguments in Favor

• •Supporters of adjournment resolutions argue that scheduled breaks allow legislators time to return to their districts, meet with constituents, and address local concerns.
• •The recess also provides staff time to process legislation, prepare for upcoming votes, and allows committees to work on bills without floor activity.

Arguments Against

• •Opponents may argue that extended recesses delay the legislative process and reduce the time available to pass important bills before session deadlines.
• •Critics could contend that frequent breaks limit legislative productivity and extend the overall length of the session, which has budget and operational implications.
