McCain Returning To Arizona, Will Start Cancer treatment Monday
Godspeed, Senator!
After a dramatic and emotional return to the Senate this week, John McCain is returning to Arizona this weekend where he will start treatment for brain cancer.
According to CNN, the Arizona Republican will return to his home state to start treatment on Monday.
McCain lived up to his maverick reputation when he cast the decisive vote to kill the Republican Obamacare repeal efforts in the early morning hours Friday.
During a speech on the Senate floor Tuesday, “I’m going home for a while to treat my illness. I have every intention of returning here and giving many of you cause to regret all the nice things you said about me. And I hope to impress on you again that it is an honor to serve the American people in your company.”
McCain was joined by two Republican colleagues, Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski, in voting with Democrats to stop the so-called “skinny” repeal bill.
