Minnesota Senator Tina Smith hospitalized after not feeling well at Capitol
MINNESOTA, JUL 16 – Senator Tina Smith missed a key Senate vote on a $9 billion rescissions bill after hospitalization and overnight observation at GW hospital, officials said.
- At the U.S. Capitol yesterday, Sen. Tina Smith felt unwell and was kept overnight for observation, her office said.
- Sen. Smith’s staff posted that the Capitol doctor recommended follow-up examination, supporting her subsequent transfer to GW hospital for further evaluation.
- The shift reduces the need for Vice President JD Vance’s tie-breaking vote, as Republicans in the Senate now hold a temporary seven-vote advantage.
- Her team said she’s on track to be back quickly, and Sen. Smith’s office noted she expects to return soon, after being hospitalized and kept overnight for observation.
- Her term ends in January 2027, and she announced earlier this year she would not seek reelection in 2026.
