House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer announced on Tuesday he has tested positive for COVID-19.
"This afternoon, I tested positive for COVID-19, and I am experiencing mild symptoms," the 82-year-old congressman said in a statement.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy has called proxy voting a "Patently unconstitutional practice" and mounted a legal challenge to such rules set by the Democrat-led House.
Hoyer is the second House Democrat leader to have tested positive recently for COVID-19-House Majority Whip James Clyburn had tested positive in December 2021.
Other Democrats who have tested positive include Sen. Mark Warner, Rep. Raúl Grijalva, and Sen. Mitt Romney, each of whom announced they had tested positive for the virus in January.
He is among at least 54 House members who tested positive for COVID-19 after having had the COVID-19 vaccine.
At least 12 U.S. senators have also contracted breakthrough cases of COVID-19.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
