Sen. Mitch McConnell's condition remains unclear 2 weeks after being hospitalized
His office has disclosed no reason for the 84-year-old senator’s stay, and he will not vote this week, aides said.
- It has been more than two weeks since Senator Mitch McConnell was hospitalized on June 14, yet his condition remains unclear after his office provided no new updates Sunday night.
- The 84-year-old senator has served as Kentucky's representative in the Senate since 1985 and is the longest-serving Senate party leader in U.S. history.
- A spokesperson for McConnell's office told WLKY Sunday night there are "no updates at this time," though the senator remains "still working closely with staff on Senate business and Kentucky matters as he continues his recovery."
- Senator Rand Paul said the day after McConnell's hospitalization that he "heard he's doing better," but the office has not disclosed why he was admitted in the two weeks since.
- Although McConnell's office did not confirm whether he remains hospitalized, they noted he will not vote this week—typical timing since the Senate is currently out of session.
