The House of Representatives has adjourned for a six-week summer recess after passing only five of the twelve required appropriations bills, failing to meet earlier commitments from Speaker Mike Johnson to complete the budget before the break. This early adjournment leaves lawmakers with just 13 days upon their return in September to address crucial funding measures and avoid a government shutdown when the fiscal year begins on October 1. Internal divisions among House Republicans, particularly influenced by the Freedom Caucus, have hampered progress, leading to several failed votes and the cancellation of planned legislation. Critics within the party have expressed frustration over this lack of productivity, with some calling the situation a disgrace. Democratic leaders have seized on the Republicans' failures to highlight their inability to deliver for constituents as the election approaches. As the House prepares to reconvene, the path to passing a stopgap funding measure remains fraught with challenges.
