Sen. Mitch McConnell’s condition has improved since being rushed to the hospital last month after suffering a health scare, a spokesperson for the Kentucky Republican revealed on Thursday.
“Senator McConnell appreciates the outpouring of support he’s receiving while he continues his recovery in the hospital,” the spokesperson said in a statement. “The senator continues to improve, and is working closely with his staff on Kentucky and Senate matters while the Senate is out of session.”
McConnell, 84, was found “unconscious” at his DC residence on June 14 and may have suffered a heart attack, according to a District Fire and EMS dispatch call.
The call referenced medical personnel in an ALS, or Advanced Life Support, ambulance being sent to the home shortly before 9 a.m. and mentioned there was “CPR in progress” for a “cardiac arrest.”
