About Lame Duck Day
Politics , United States
Ends: Feb 06, 2024
DESCRIPTION:
Lame Duck Day marks the anniversary of the 20th amendment to the US Constitution:
20TH AMENDMENT
"The terms of the President and Vice President shall end at noon on January 20, and the terms of Senators and Representatives at noon on January 3, of the years in which such terms would have ended if this article had not been ratified; the terms of their successors shall then begin."
Lame Duck refers to the period when an elected official nears the end of his tenure after a successor is elected.
Inauguration Day occurred on March 4 through 1932. Congress usually had two sessions, the second of which was traditionally held from December until March. The session was commonly called the "lame duck session."
The 20th amendment moved the beginning of the new Congressional year to January 3 and the president's inauguration to January 20, thus shortening the lame-duck period from four months to two months.
