Summary
All eyes will be on Capitol Hill today to finally see 57-year-old Tom Kean Jr return to work, after a months-long mysterious disappearance from the public eye. Kean hasn’t been seen publicly since March 5th and has missed more than 100 votes over the past four months. The congressman is running for reelection in a hotly contested seat, so he has a lot of explaining to do, not only to his colleagues, but more importantly, to his constituents, Kean has only said that he was being treated for an unspecified medical condition, but has promised to reveal all in a floor speech in Congress today.
