Senators will return to Washington next week, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said on Monday.

Senators will return “one week from today,” he announced. “We will modify routines in ways that are smart and safe, but we will honor our constitutional duty to the American people and conduct critical business in person.”
