McConnell says he ‘won’t be able to return to the Senate floor to vote quite yet’

Sen. Mitch McConnell says he won’t return to the Senate floor to vote "quite yet" but is continuing to work remotely with staff and colleagues.
He was hospitalized after a fall tied to childhood polio; doctors say he developed pneumonia that responded to antibiotics and he’s cleared for intensive physical therapy.
His absence — coupled with Sen. Lindsey Graham’s death — tightens GOP margins on the Appropriations Committee and could complicate advancing the annual defense bill (NDAA).
