Sen. Dianne Feinstein is en route back to Washington, D.C., to make a return to the Senate for the first time in months amid calls from several members of her own party to resign, a spokesperson for the senator confirmed to the Washington Examiner.
Feinstein is set to return to the Senate floor to cast a vote on Wednesday, her first recorded vote since Feb. 16 before the five-term senator stepped away for health issues. The California senator’s office has long teased a return to the upper chamber, with many congressional Democrats growing restless over her absence stalling their agenda.

Some Democrats went so far as to call on Feinstein to resign from the Senate due to her prolonged absence, accusing her of clogging up judicial nominations and costing the party some key votes. That list included names such as Reps. Ro Khanna (D-CA), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and Dean Phillips (D-MN).
