From the Washington Examiner: Rep. Donald Norcross (D-NJ) was hospitalized over the weekend, jeopardizing House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries’s (D-NY) attempts to rally his troops in the House.
Republicans currently hold a 220-213 advantage in the House. The ratio was previously 220-215, but Democratic Reps. Sylvester Turner and Raul Grijalva died in March. Norcross’s hospitalization could place Democrats in an even more weakened position.
“Congressman Donald Norcross was traveling over the weekend and suffered an emergency medical event likely related to his gallbladder. He was admitted to UNC Rex Hospital in North Carolina on Sunday and is in stable condition where he is receiving exceptional medical treatment,” a message from his staff read.
Norcross was in “good spirits,” the message added, and once medically cleared, he will be transferred to a hospital in New Jersey to “complete his recovery.”
