Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announced Thursday that he returned home following a weeks-long recovery from a sudden health scare.
The statement, obtained by CNN’s Manu Raju, read:
“Earlier today, I was discharged from the rehabilitation center to continue my recovery at home. Elaine and I are grateful for the many well wishes and support from friends, colleagues, and Kentuckians, and for the attentive care I’ve received from excellent doctors, nurses, therapists, and hospital staff.
“On the advice of my doctors, I’ll maintain an intensive regimen of physical therapy from home during the state work period, and I’ll continue to engage with my staff and colleagues on important Senate business.”
This is a developing story and will be updated.
