McConnell Returns to Senate Floor | Lexington News

Senator Mitch McConnell, 84, is set to return to the Senate floor for his first vote since a fall in June, marking a major milestone in his recovery from a serious health scare that included hospitalization, mild pneumonia, and brief unconsciousness. Though still not at full strength, he’s committed to being present for key votes while continuing physical therapy as advised by doctors. A lifelong polio survivor, his rehabilitation has been especially challenging. Despite stepping down as GOP leader after the next election, McConnell remains a powerful force in Washington and vows to continue serving Kentucky. He and his wife Elaine thank their home state for its unwavering support as they prepare to resume regular duties this month.
