Feinstein returns to Senate while House Republicans work on border bill votes.

TL;DR Summary
Senator Dianne Feinstein has returned to Capitol Hill after a three-month absence due to health issues. She plans to work a "lighter schedule" as she resumes her duties, citing side effects from the shingles virus. Feinstein missed 91 floor votes while recovering. Her absence complicated Democratic efforts to confirm some of President Joe Biden's nominees, with the Judiciary Committee going from an 11-10 majority to a 10-10 stalemate. Feinstein's return is expected to break the stalemate and allow the committee to report out some of Biden's judicial nominees to the full Senate.
