Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear has issued an ultimatum demanding that Senator Mitch McConnell either publicly address constituents regarding his health status and ability to serve or resign his seat. In a letter sent to the Republican senator and his staff, the Democratic governor called for transparency following McConnell's ongoing absence from Congress.
McConnell has not been seen in public since his hospitalization on June 14 for an unspecified medical condition. According to the reports, it has been more than 40 days since the 84-year-old senator's last public appearance.
The demand from the Kentucky governor places renewed pressure on McConnell and his office to provide clarity on the senator's physical condition and his future in the United States Senate.
