The House of Representatives has convened for the final session of the 118th Congress. Lawmakers gathered for a pro forma session on Friday and are set to enter an immediate recess. Congress is expected to adjourn sine die at the end of the hour.
Following this session, the House will reconvene for the 119th Congress, commencing with a recorded vote on the quorum call. Subsequently, lawmakers will proceed to vote for a new speaker of the House. The outcome of this election could potentially extend to multiple rounds if Speaker Mike Johnson fails to secure a majority vote.
