President Donald Trump on Saturday urged Senate Majority Leader John Thune to cancel summer recess so that his nominees can be confirmed sooner rather than later.

"Hopefully the very talented John Thune, fresh off our many victories over the past two weeks and, indeed, 6 months, will cancel August recess (and long weekends!), in order to get my incredible nominees confirmed," Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114882283904953607">wrote on Truth Social</a>. "We need them badly!!!"

Congress is scheduled to kick off its summer recess on Aug. 2 and return to Capitol Hill on Sept. 8. The recess is typically intended as a break that allows members of Congress to return home and visit with the constituents in their respective states.

Trump's push to cancel the upcoming recess comes fresh off his signing of the "Genius Act," the first major federal cryptocurrency bill, into law.

It also follows the GOP's success in passing Trump's massive policy package that became known as the "Big, Beautiful Bill."

NTD called Thune's press office for comment on Saturday evening but did not receive a response by publication.

Trump and Thune recently celebrated the upper chamber's accomplishments together.

"Great night at the White House with President Trump and Senate Republicans celebrating a successful six months of implementing our pro-America agenda," Thune wrote in a <a href="https://x.com/LeaderJohnThune/status/1946622017689489900">July 19 post</a> on X.

According to political appointee tracker Partnership for Public Service, Trump has picked 356 nominees to fill key roles in his administration so far.

As of July 19, 262 nominees are still being considered by the upper chamber, <a href="https://ourpublicservice.org/performance-measures/political-appointee-tracker/">according to its website</a>, including judicial confirmations.

Last week, the Senate confirmed Trump’s first judicial pick of his second term in a 46–42 party-line vote, approving Whitney Hermandorfer as a judge for the Sixth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

The Democratic-led Senate under former President Joe Biden confirmed 235 federal judges and the Republican-led Senate in Trump’s first term confirmed 234 federal judges.

Trump has fewer vacancies to fill in his second term. While the president during his first term inherited more than 100 vacancies from former President Barack Obama due to obstruction by a GOP-led Senate, Trump now has 49 vacancies to fill out of almost 900 federal judgeships.

Last week, <a href="https://apnews.com/article/trump-judges-confirmation-hermandorfer-senate-c69a045cd0675f07a2f557deb50233ed">Thune maintained</a> that the Senate would work to quickly confirm those nominees, even though he acknowledged that the upper chamber isn't facing the same amount of judicial vacancies compared to the president's first term.

It remains unclear whether Thune will move forward with Trump's request to cancel the upcoming monthlong recess.

According to the <a href="https://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/senate-stories/give-us-a-summer-break.htm">Senate Historical Office</a>, the upper chamber in the past has shortened or scrapped the August recess on rare occasions. In 2005, the Senate interrupted its summer recess to pass an emergency relief bill following Hurricane Katrina. In 2018, the Senate cancelled the August recess to consider a series of appropriations bills.
