Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell released a doctor’s note Thursday saying he is “clear” to return to work after he appeared to freeze up for the second time in two months.
But that isn’t satisfying Republicans who are raising concerns that McConnell, R-Ky., the longest-serving leader in Senate history, isn’t being fully transparent about his health issues.
“If he wants to stay as leader, he needs to be transparent and open about his current condition,” said a House Republican, who requested anonymity to discuss McConnell’s health.
