A RESOLUTION to provide for a recess in the proceedings of the One Hundred Fourteenth General Assembly.

The bill, TN SJR0140, is a resolution that calls for a break in the activities of the Tennessee General Assembly. It specifies that the recess will take place from February 13, 2025, to February 20, 2025. This allows lawmakers a short pause in their legislative work.

Supporters of TN SJR0140 would argue that the recess is a necessary opportunity for legislators to regroup and assess their progress. They may emphasize that such breaks can enhance productivity and foster better decision-making during the legislative session.

Critics of TN SJR0140 might contend that taking a recess could delay important legislative work and hinder the timely addressing of pressing issues. They may argue that the time away from the assembly could lead to a lack of accountability and continuity in governance.
