Sen. Mitch McConnell was found unconscious when he was taken to the hospital for undisclosed reasons last month, according to audio of an EMS call in the District of Columbia.<\/p>\n

A dispatcher can be heard alerting EMS workers to an individual \u201cfound unconscious\u201d at Mr. McConnell\u2019s Capitol Hill home on the morning of June 14.<\/p>\n

The audio was first posted online by journalist Desiree Townsend.<\/p>\n

Mr. McConnell, 84, is set to retire at the end of the year after serving seven terms as a senator from Kentucky, including as the longest-serving party leader in U.S. Senate history.<\/p>\n

He has suffered health problems in recent years, including several falls and two occasions in which he froze while speaking in public.<\/p>\n

Mr. McConnell, a Republican, stepped down from his leadership post in January 2025.<\/p>\n

He announced last year he would not run for re-election but plans to serve out the remainder of his term, which ends Jan. 1. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The Washington Times reached out to Mr. McConnell\u2019s press team about the senator\u2019s health status and to verify the EMS dispatch audio.<\/p>\n

Mr. McConnell\u2019s press team said in late June that he was receiving \u201cexcellent care\u201d and working closely with staff to keep up with his Senate work following the June 14 trip to the hospital. He has not returned to work in the Capitol, and it\u2019s not clear whether he\u2019s been discharged from the hospital.<\/p>\n

Until recently, Mr. McConnell was one of the most powerful lawmakers in Washington. He served as Senate Republican leader from 2007 until 2025.<\/p>\n

He currently serves as chairman of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense, which is responsible for legislation funding the Department of Defense and military operations.<\/p>\n

Mr. McConnell\u2019s wife, Elaine Chao, served as transportation secretary during President Trump\u2019s first administration.<\/p>\n

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, South Dakota Republican, said Mr. McConnell, while absent from Congress, remained engaged in Senate work.<\/p>\n
