Mitch McConnell: “This proposal is little more than a crude intimidation tactic masquerading as good government.”

And I’ll continue to engage with my staff and colleagues on important Senate business.

As much as it frustrates me, this process takes time. And on the advice of my doctors, I won't be able to return to the Senate floor to vote quite yet.

I’m still working hard to get back to my full schedule of work in the Senate and in Kentucky, keeping up with intense physical therapy per my doctors’ orders. Unfortunately, that means I won’t be able to make it to Fancy Farm, Kentucky…

I’ve submitted to every test they can think of to help figure out what caused this incident.
