Mitch McConnell's staff is remaining tight-lipped about the Kentucky senator’s recovery — more than a month since he was last seen in public.
The former Senate majority, 84, finally addressed rumors about his health last week, explaining in a letter to constituents that he is alive and recovering from a fall and an illness. In what’s being called a “proof-of-life” letter, he said that, while he was reluctant to discuss specific details about his health, he would keep constituents updated on his recovery.
