Fetterman suffered a stroke in May 2022 while on the campaign trail.

It was recently reported that Fetterman described his severe hearing processing issues as causing him to hear the voice of the teacher from the "Peanuts" cartoon when listening to people speak, according to the New York Times.

Due to his condition, the Senator carries around a closed captioning tablet that allows him to communicate with people while at work.
