False70% confidence7 sourcesSep 16, 2026The Senate and House returned to session on September 16, 2026, after a five-week recess.Said by AThe claim that both chambers returned to session on September 16, 2026 is contradicted by the sources: the Senate's schedule and Snopes reporting put its return on September 14, and Grant Thornton reports the House returned on August 31. The five-week recess is roughly consistent with the Senate's August 10 to September 11 state work period, and the House was in session on September 16, but it was not returning from recess that day.False55% confidence6 sourcesSep 16, 2026Upside has given 1 billion dollars back to its users.Said by CThe claim's central figure of $1 billion conflicts with Upside's own cashback page, which shows '$550,000,000+ Cash back earned' (published 2026-10-02), roughly half the claimed amount. The $1 billion figure appears only in an aggregator profile (which says 'as of 2025') and in Trustpilot and promo posts that repeat the company's claim, so it lacks an independent primary record. The passage itself is the claimant's promotional text and does not count as evidence.
