Mitch McConnell is ‘medically clear’ to continue work, U.S. Capitol doctor says

WASHINGTON — One day after Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell appeared to freeze up at a public event, Brian Monahan, the attending physician for the U.S. Capitol, said that he told McConnell “he is medically clear” to continue to work.

Monahan said in a statement that he had “consulted” with McConnell, 81, and “conferred” with the Kentucky Republican’s neurology team and determined that he is “medically cleared to continue with his schedule as planned.”
