Senator Mitch McConnell suffered a fall on the Capitol steps but received assistance from fellow senators, particularly from Montana's Steve Daines. After the incident, McConnell was able to walk independently to a GOP lunch, where he actively participated. A spokesperson assured that McConnell's health, particularly the lingering effects of polio in his left leg, would not interfere with his work schedule. This incident highlights McConnell's resilience and ongoing involvement in Senate duties, even at 82 years old.
I was right behind him and I helped him get back up, and he walked on his own power to lunch.
Senator McConnell is fine. The lingering effects of polio in his left leg will not disrupt his regular schedule of work.
