Reid would have to concur to call back the Senate. Unlikely.

Ryan can call the House back by consulting with the Minority Leader but that person doesn’t have to agree. Harry Reid has to agree in the Senate.

Here is something I would look into if I was Speaker. If Ryan calls back the House does that mean the Senate now has to do Pro Forma Sessions since you can’t go more than 3 days with one side out of session and the other in session.

This recess is at the magical 10 number. They need it less than 10. I find it so amusing that Scalia’s words on Canning are coming into play.
