Dianne Feinstein to return to Senate after extended absence.

Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein of California, who has been recovering from shingles, will return to the Senate on Tuesday after being away since February. During her absence, she faced pressure to return to Washington and calls from several House Democrats to resign. Feinstein sits on the Senate Judiciary Committee, and without her vote on the panel, Democrats said that they would have to delay some of President Biden’s key judicial nominees. In April, Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna of California became the first member of Congress to call on Feinstein to resign.
