Senator Chuck Schumer has been taken to the hospital on reports that he suffered from dehydration due to the heat. But he’s apparently back at work:

Via Fox News:

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., was taken to the hospital in Washington Wednesday for dehydration, his office said, as the region continues to experience another day of scorching heat.

“Leader Schumer was at the Senate gym this morning and got lightheaded,” Schumer’s office told Fox News. “Out of an abundance of caution, he went to the hospital to be treated for dehydration and is now back at work in the Capitol.”

Temperatures in Washington D.C., were expected to reach into the high 90s as parts of the East Coast experienced a heatwave.

“Extreme Heat Alert for DC: Until 8PM Today. Daytime temperatures will feel like 105°F or hotter. Drink water. Stay cool,” the Washington D.C. Homeland Security & Emergency Management posted on X.

Glad he’s okay, but I wish he weren’t back to work.
