Sen. Mitch McConnell returned to the Senate floor Monday, voting for the first time in nearly three months after an extended absence following an injury from a fall earlier this summer.
“My recovery has been a long and often frustrating process, and the lingering effects of childhood polio haven’t made it any easier,” he said in a statement. “I’m still not quite back to 100%, but I’ve assured Leader Thune that, as I continue with physical therapy on the advice of my doctors, I will do my best to be present for tough votes when our Conference needs me.”
