He has been admitted to the hospital where he is receiving treatment,&#8221; His spokesperson did not provide further information.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years many Democratic priorities were quashed by the 81 year-old Kentucky Republican. He was a major in both the House and Senate, when Democrats held the edge.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats have long hated him, especially for the tactics that enabled Republicans to gain a 6-3 majority at the U.S. Supreme Court. He has drawn criticism from Donald Trump for his false claim that Trump&#8217;s 2020 defeat in the election was due to fraud.<\/p>\n<p>McConnell, who now holds a slim 222-213 majority at the U.S. House of Representatives has remained silent in the U.S. House of Representatives debate on raising the country&#8217;s $31.4 trillion debt ceiling. He left talks to Kevin McCarthy and Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<p>McConnell, currently serving his 7th term that runs through 2026 is the 3rd U.S. Senator to have been hospitalized in recent weeks.<\/p>\n<p>John Fetterman (Democrat) is in treatment for depression. Diane Feinstein (Democrat), was recently released to rest from shingles.<\/p>\n<p>The 51-49 margin is held by Democrats including three independents voting with them.<\/p>\n<p>McConnell was the first senator to be elected in 1984. McConnell was elected to the Senate in 1984. He has served as Senate majority leader between 2015 and 2021.<\/p>\n<p>McConnell, a former Jefferson County judge-executive, Kentucky, has helped to steer the federal judiciary strongly towards the right over his almost four decades of service in the Senate.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans had 15 rounds to vote after winning a slim majority in the House last November&#8217;s elections. McCarthy became their speaker. McConnell, however, was easily won by Senate Republicans.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/winred.tomcotton.com\/tom-cotton\/tik-tok-beacon-ads?utm_source=rc&#038;utm_medium=fbads&#038;utm_campaign=bantiktok\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> \t\t\t\t \t\t\t<\/a> \t\t<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/winred.tomcotton.com\/tom-cotton\/tik-tok-beacon-ads?utm_source=rc&#038;utm_medium=fbads&#038;utm_campaign=bantiktok\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> \t\t\t\t \t\t\t<\/a> \t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Reporting from Washington Newsroom.
