Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., was discharged from a hospital Monday after being treated for a concussion resulting from a fall last week
"At the advice of his physician, the next step will be a period of physical therapy at an inpatient rehabilitation facility before he returns home," said David Popp, communications director for McConnell. "Over the course of treatment this weekend, the Leader’s medical team discovered that he also suffered a minor rib fracture on Wednesday, for which he is also being treated."

"The Leader and Secretary Chao are deeply thankful for the skilled medical care, prayers, and kindness they have received," Popp added.
McConnell, 81, was hospitalized for several days after his Wednesday fall while attending an evening dinner for the Senate Leadership Fund, a political action committee aligned with him, when he tripped and fell.
