The Senate unanimously passed a massive stimulus bill that costs approximately $2.2 trillion. McConnell announced shortly before it started that the Senate will not have its next roll call vote until April 20.
That means the Senate will cut next week’s scheduled session. After that, the senators were already scheduled to go on a two-week recess starting on March 31. That will keep the Senate out of town for a total of three weeks.
Senators had indicated that they expected the Senate to leave after they passed the massive stimulus bill amid growing concerns about the spread of the coronavirus on Capitol Hill. Sen. Rand Paul

"My guess is we probably don't come in next week and then don't come in the two weeks we're scheduled" to be on recess, Blunt said, adding that they would "use those three weeks to get ready for whatever is phase four."
Asked about the schedule, Sen. Thom Tillis

McConnell noted that the Senate could come back early as the country continues to grapple with the spread of the coronavirus and the subsequent economic downturn.
“If circumstances require the Senate to return for a vote sooner than April 20, we will provide at least 24 hours notice," he said. "Our nation obviously is going through a kind of crisis that is totally unprecedented in living memory."
“Let’s stay connected and continue to collaborate on the best ways to keep helping our states and our country,” he added.
