Republican Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell announced Thursday that he was discharged from the hospital after over 50 days of rehabilitation. <\/p>

McConnell\u2019s latest hospitalization was due to a fall in his Washington home, where he was briefly left unconscious June 14. McConnell later developed pneumonia while he was being rehabilitated and has since been absent from the Senate.<\/p>

During his hospitalization, McConnell\u2019s office released two photos of the senator in recovery in response to growing calls for transparency. Several colleagues and allies of the 84-year-old senator, like Senate Majority Leader John Thune and Scott Jennings, have also spoken to McConnell on the phone during his hospitalization. <\/p>

Notably, McConnell has not been seen or photographed by anyone independent from his office since he was hospitalized nearly two months ago. <\/p>

\u201cEarlier today, I was discharged from the rehabilitation center to continue my recovery at home,\u201d McConnell said in a statement to reporters. \u201cElaine and I are grateful for the many well wishes and support from friends, colleagues, and Kentuckians, and for the attentive care I\u2019ve received from excellent doctors, nurses, therapists, and hospital staff.\u201d (RELATED: Mitch McConnell\u2019s Docs Give Health Update About Elderly Senator)<\/strong><\/p>

The retiring senator also vowed to return to his role in the Senate, despite repeated and prolonged hospitalizations, saying he will continue to receive medical attention from home. <\/p>

\u201cOn the advice of my doctors, I\u2019ll maintain an intensive regimen of physical therapy from home during the state work period, and I\u2019ll continue to engage with my staff and colleagues on important Senate business.\u201d <\/p>

McConnell faced an onslaught of scrutiny for the lack of transparency surrounding his condition. Critics also noted that his state continued to go unrepresented while McConnell was being hospitalized.<\/p>

Notably, the Senate Agriculture Committee failed to roll out the Republican Farm Bill on Tuesday due to McConnell\u2019s absence after Democrats unanimously voted against it. <\/p>

McConnell has also been hospitalized on at least three separate occasions since 2023, has had multiple freezes on camera, and is routinely wheeled around the Capitol Hill complex in a wheelchair. <\/p>
