McConnell Urged To Provide ‘Proof of Life’ After Hospitalization

“As Governor, I request that you fully update Kentuckians regarding the current status of your health,” Gov. Andy Beshear,a Democrat who is seen as a potential 2028 presidential contender, wrote in a letter to McConnell on Wednesday.

“As public officeholders, we have made a commitment to our constituents to do our best to represent them and to always be transparent,” Beshear’s letter continued.

“I believe this requires clear communication about one’s ability to serve,” he added.

Several top Republicans were asked about McConnell’s condition on Tuesday, and their responses were not reassuring.

Utah Republican Sen. Mike Lee has said that even members of Congress are in the dark about McConnell’s current condition.
