Dianne Feinstein, 90, ‘HOSPITALIZED after fall in San Francisco’: More health fears for ailing Democratic Senator after ‘tripping in her house’

Senator Dianne Feinstein is in the hospital after tripping and falling at her San Francisco home, according to a new report on Wednesday.

It is unclear how serious her injuries are, TMZ reports.

The 90-year-old senator has struggled with health problems in recent years. Senators have their annual break in August in Washington DC

Feinstein returned to the Senate in May after being absent for nearly three months, missing nearly 100 votes after suffering from shingles.

She was in a wheelchair and looked frail as she entered the US Capitol. During her return, aides helped her through the Capitol and taught her how to vote on important bills.

She said doctors advised her to work a lighter schedule because she continues to experience side effects.

“While I have made significant progress and was able to return to Washington, I am still experiencing some side effects from the shingles virus. My doctors have advised me to work a lighter schedule when I return to the Senate,” she said in a statement.

She has served in the Senate for nearly 31 years, representing California.

Feinstein faced calls to resign — even from her fellow Democrats — amid her health concerns and concerns that her absence could get in the way of confirmations from President Joe Biden’s judges. She sits on the Senate Judiciary Committee, which conducts the confirmation hearings.

She has refused to leave. Several female legislators supported her, calling it sexist to ask Feinstein — a trailblazing female lawmaker — to resign when many white men have served in the Senate until their deaths.

Feinstein has said she will not be running for re-election next year and several Democrats have already gone to the primary to replace her.
