Earlier summer recess for Congress

This bill would move the congressional summer adjournment earlier. Every "July 31" date would become "June 30." In one subsection, "August" would become "July," and the Labor Day return would shift to the first Monday in August. These changes would start when the second session of the 119th Congress convenes. This would mainly affect Members and staff schedules, with only indirect effects for the public.
