Sure! Here's a clear and concise explanation of the term "special session":
A special session refers to a meeting of Congress that occurs outside of the two regular sessions held per year. These special sessions are called by the President to address specific urgent matters that require immediate attention and cannot wait until the next regular session.
For example, President Harry Truman called the last special session in 1947 to discuss pressing issues that needed immediate legislative action. Special sessions allow Congress to convene outside of their usual schedule to address important issues efficiently.
