Senator Mitch McConnell makes a dramatic return to Capitol Hill after a 92-day hospital stay following a fall at home, vowing to be there for key votes despite lingering health issues tied to childhood polio. His comeback comes as senators reconvene after a five-week break and amid growing scrutiny over his fitness for office — including a call from Kentucky’s governor for him to resign if he can’t prove he’s capable. Though not at full strength and still undergoing physical therapy, McConnell is eager to rejoin the Senate floor and reconnect with colleagues. This marks his first vote since the fall and signals the final chapter of a historic 40-year career that reshaped the GOP and federal judiciary — he’ll step down in January after announcing last year he wouldn’t seek re-election.
