Mitch McConnell released from rehabilitation center after June fall

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) will spend the coming weeks recovering from a fall in the comfort of his home, releasing a Thursday statement announcing that he’d been released from a rehabilitation center earlier in the day.

“Earlier today, I was discharged from the rehabilitation center to continue my recovery at home,” McConnell said. “Elaine and I are grateful for the many well wishes and support from friends, colleagues, and Kentuckians, and for the attentive care I’ve received from excellent doctors, nurses, therapists, and hospital staff.”
