Description

This event tracks the timing of the U.S. Senate's adjournment for its August 2026 recess, focusing on when substantive floor business officially halts. It examines different possible windows within August for this adjournment to occur, with specific deadlines for resolution.

Kalshi

The event resolves based on whether the U.S. Senate adjourns from substantive floor business for its August 2026 recess within any of three specified timeframes after issuance: before August 8, before August 11, or before August 15, 2026. All markets share the same secondary rules, requiring verification from official U.S. Senate reporting. Repurposed or referenced content from prior to issuance or from third-party sources does not count unless published directly by the Senate on its official platform with clear attribution. The earliest adjournment date that meets these criteria determines the resolution, with each market addressing a progressively later deadline.
