Senate adjourns for August recess, SAVE America Act stalls

Քաղաք․

The Senate adjourned for the August recess on August eighth, leaving the SAVE America Act stalled and postponing related budget reconciliation, according to officials. Earlier that day, senators left the chamber early after the measure failed to secure enough votes; only 52 Republicans backed the narrowed version, and leaders said the legislation would be revisited in September.
