Adjournment sine die

Final adjournment of an annual or two- year session of Congress. Adjournment without fixing a definite day for reconvening; literally "adjournment without a day." A session can continue when, under the 20th Amendment to the Constitution, it automatically terminates. Both houses must agree to a concurrent resolution for either house to adjourn for more than three days.
