The 1933 Amendment changed the convening date for a new Congress to January 3 of odd-numbered years, shortening the time between an election and the beginning of the next Congress to just two months. Since that time, Congress has met in lame-duck session to conclude urgent or unfinished business.
In politics, a lame duck or outgoing politician is an elected official whose successor has already been elected or will be soon. An outgoing politician is often seen as having less influence with other politicians due to their limited time left in office.
“Lame Duck” syndrome refers to those who seem to endlessly repeat the same pattern of behaviours that consistently delivers them with unsatisfactory results, and yet do nothing to break that pattern.
