Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) will hold a press conference on Wednesday following the GOP luncheon.

McConnell's conference will be his first since his latest health episode, when he had difficulty speaking at a press conference in Kentucky on Aug. 30. It was his second health scare after he froze for several seconds during a press briefing at the Capitol in late July.

MCCONNELL HEALTH EPISODES LOOM OVER SENATE RETURN TO WASHINGTON

Dr. Brian P. Monahan, the attending Capitol physician, examined McConnell and ruled out a seizure, stroke, or other movement disorder on Tuesday. Monahan attributed the Kentucky senator's most recent freezing spell to dehydration and lightheadedness related to his concussion.

McConnell was concussed from a fall earlier this year. He was hospitalized and sidelined from the Senate for nearly six weeks.

At the top of the agenda is avoiding a government shutdown, with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) anticipating needing a continuing resolution to keep the government funded past Sept. 30. McConnell has indicated he is not willing to negotiate on spending.

The press conference will start at 2 p.m. Eastern time on Wednesday.
