Rep. Lou Correa recovering from emergency open-heart surgery
The California Democrat said the surgery went well and he will keep working from his district office during recovery.
- On Tuesday, Republicans blocked an impeachment resolution against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth in a 211-204 vote, with 11 Democrats, including Rep. Lou Correa, absent from the proceedings.
- Following a heart attack over the weekend in Orange County, the California Democrat underwent emergency open-heart surgery on Tuesday, forcing him to miss the vote.
- Correa said he "vehemently" supported impeaching Hegseth, claiming the secretary "has dragged us into another endless war" and discriminated against LGBTQ service members; troops deserve leadership that "honors our Constitution."
- Reporting that the surgery "went well, and I am now recovering," the 68-year congressman said he will continue serving constituents from his district office during recovery.
- Internal leadership changes saw House Mike Johnson manage the transition at the Capitol on Tuesday, with Jim Jordan elected over Majority Leader Rep. Steve Scalise after Johnson declined to run.
