Feinstein's Confusion Prompts Instruction to Vote 'Aye' in Senate Hearing
TL;DR Summary
During a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing, Senator Dianne Feinstein had to be reminded to vote on the Defense Appropriations bill after appearing confused. Feinstein, who is 90 years old and has faced questions about her health, was prompted by Senator Patty Murray multiple times before finally casting her vote. Feinstein's health has been a concern for Democrats, and she announced earlier this year that she will not run for reelection in 2024. This incident comes after Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell also had a health scare during a news conference.
