The Arizona State Senate on April 29, 2026, agreed to a message from the House of Representatives asking the Senate's consent to adjourn the 57th Legislature's second regular session after completing its business and entered multiple House messages and budget bills into the official journal before adjourning.
A House message read to the chamber cited Article 4, Part 2, Section 9 of the Arizona Constitution and asked the Senate to consent "to adjourn the 57th Legislature, second regular session, after it has completed its labors today, 04/29/2026, until Tuesday, 05/05/2026," and was signed, in the message, "Crystal Verano, chief clerk." The Senate, on a motion from Senator Warner, agreed to the House request by voice vote and directed the secretary to record the action.
Senators also moved to place a set of budget bills under introduction and first reading; by unanimous consent, the listed reports of standing committees and House messages were entered into the journal without being read aloud. The Rules Committee was announced to meet Monday, May 4, at 9:30 a.m. in Caucus Room 1. Senator Repsey announced the Democratic caucus will meet Monday, May 4, at 9:45 a.m. in the Democratic Caucus Room; Senator Warner announced the Republican caucus will meet Monday, May 4, at 9:45 a.m. in Caucus Room 1.
Later in the session Senator Warner moved that the Senate "stand adjourned until Monday, 05/04/2026 at 10:00 a.m.," the motion was put to a voice vote, the ayes carried, and the presiding officer concluded the day's business by adjourning the Senate. The transcript records both the House's request to adjourn until May 5, 2026, and the Senate's internal scheduling motion to stand adjourned until May 4, 2026; the record does not provide individual roll-call vote tallies for either voice vote.
The Senate did not take up further substantive debate or produce committee reports on policy in the portion of the transcript provided. The next listed items on the Senate calendar are the Rules Committee meeting and party caucuses on May 4.
