Sen. Tina Smith (D-Minn.) was hospitalized on Wednesday, likely putting Democrats down a vote during the vote-a-rama on the rescissions package that is expected to last into the evening.
Smith, 67, revealed on social media that she felt unwell while at the Capitol earlier on Wednesday and subsequently went to George Washington University Hospital for treatment. She is expected to be held overnight.
“While at work at the Capitol today, Sen. Smith started to not feel well,” she wrote. “She went to the Capitol physician who recommended she undergo more thorough examination at GW hospital.”
“Out of an abundance of caution, they are keeping her overnight for observation,” the post continued. “She expects to be back at work very soon.”
Her absence means that Democrats likely will not be at full attendance throughout the vote-a-rama. It also means that Vice President Vance is unlikely to be needed to break a tie on the proposal, having been forced to do so on Tuesday night on a procedural vote to advance to the vote-a-rama.
Smith announced earlier this year she would not run for reelection in 2026.
