Report: John Fetterman Will Return to U.S. Senate Mid-April

March 29, 2023 by Jacob Bliss Leave a Comment

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) will reportedly make his return to the U.S. Senate the week of April 17 after checking himself into the hospital for “clinical depression” in February.

“Sen. John Fetterman plans to return to the Senate the week of April 17 after more than a month of inpatient treatment for depression, according to two people with direct knowledge of his plan,” Politico reported on Wednesday.

The Pennsylvania senator checked himself into Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in February, where he began receiving treatment on a voluntary basis for “clinical depression” after being examined by doctors, according to a statement from Fetterman’s chief of staff, Adam Jentleson, at the time.

It was the second time the senator had been in the hospital within weeks. The week before, Fetterman was hospitalized for “clinical depression,” he made a hospital visit after he “began feeling lightheaded.” At the time, Fetterman’s communications director, Joe Cavello, said that “initial tests did not show evidence of a new stroke” but that more tests would be run.

Fetterman’s return will be greatly welcomed by Senate Democrats, who have a slim majority, since it would ultimately help fend off Republican-led bills. Since he left the Senate for the hospital, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) also announced that she would miss some time in the Senate to receive treatment for shingles.

The move by both senators left the Democrats without an outright majority and a struggle to get bills passed and deals made in their absence.

Fetterman will ‘be back soon,’ comms director says

March 24, 2023 by Alex Nitzberg Leave a Comment

Democratic Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, who checked into Walter Reed National Military Medical Center more than a month ago due to clinical depression, will return “soon,” according to communications director Joe Calvello.

“He’ll be back soon, at least over a week, but soon,” Joe Calvello noted Thursday, according to the Associated Press.

Calvello said the lawmaker is getting daily in-person briefings from chief of staff Adam Jentleson, according to the outlet.

“While John has experienced depression off and on throughout his life, it only became severe in recent weeks,” a statement released last month by Jentleson said. “On Monday, John was evaluated by Dr. Brian P. Monahan, the Attending Physician of the United States Congress. Yesterday, Dr. Monahan recommended inpatient care at Walter Reed. John agreed, and he is receiving treatment on a voluntary basis,” the statement noted at the time.

Earlier in February, Fetterman had been taken to George Washington University Hospital after experiencing lightheadedness, but he was released later the same week. “In addition to the CT, CTA, and MRI tests ruling out a stroke, his EEG test results came back normal, with no evidence of seizures,” a statement released at the time by Calvello noted.

The left-wing politician had a pacemaker with a defibrillator implanted last year after suffering a stroke — he has been having problems with auditory processing in the wake of the stroke.

He took office earlier this year after defeating Republican candidate Dr. Mehmet Oz in the Keystone State’s 2022 U.S. Senate race.

Earlier this month, Jentleson indicated that Fetterman was “well on his way to recovery.”

“Society’s expectations and traditional gender roles play a part in why men are less likely to discuss or seek help for their mental health. As always, John continues to challenge the conversation. So human, so kind, so cute,” Fetterman’s wife Gisele tweeted.
