Amending House Resolution 211 to ensure that days occurring during the first session of the One Hundred Nineteenth Congress constitute calendar days for purposes of section 202 of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622) with respect to a joint resolution terminating a national emergency declared by the President on February 1, 2025.

This measure changes how the House counts days when reviewing a vote to end a specific national emergency declared on February 1, 2025. It says the countdown should use calendar days (including weekends and holidays), not only days the House is in session. This can speed up how quickly the House must act on a resolution to end that emergency under the National Emergencies Act .

Key points:

• What changes: The clock for considering a resolution to end the February 1, 2025 national emergency runs in calendar days, so deadlines come sooner .
• Who is affected: Mainly the House’s schedule and process; indirectly, anyone affected by policies tied to that national emergency .
• When: Applies to days during the first session of the current Congress in 2025 for that specific emergency review .
