Dianne Feinstein, the Democratic senator who is the oldest member of the upper chamber of the US Congress, said she plans on serving out her term despite growing calls for her to resign.
Feinstein, 89, has not voted in Congress since February, and has been away from Capitol Hill after being hospitalized for shingles treatment in March. “I intend to return as soon as possible once my medical team advises that it’s safe for me to travel. In the meantime, I remain committed to the job and will continue to work from home in San Francisco,” she said.
