Sen. Mitch McConnell fell outside the Senate chamber Wednesday, the latest in a series of health scares for the former majority leader.
The 82-year-old Kentucky Republican, who stepped down from leadership at the end of the 118th Congress, was seen using a wheelchair Wednesday afternoon, which his office said was a “precautionary measure.”
“Senator McConnell is fine. The lingering effects of polio in his left leg will not disrupt his regular schedule of work,” a McConnell spokesperson said via email.
