U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell said he will not rejoin the Senate when it returns to work on Monday because he is still recovering from a fall and from pneumonia.
"As much as it frustrates me, this process takes time," McConnell said in a statement on Sunday, his first since he was hospitalized last month. "And on the advice of my doctors, I won't be able to return to the Senate floor to vote quite yet."
