81-year-old Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC) had just finished voting to help elect Johnson when disaster struck. Fox News revealed that she fell on the grand staircases on the GOP side of the Capitol.
PBS Newshour Correspondent Lisa Desjardins revealed Capitol Police soon swarmed the scene to attend to the elderly member of Congress.

Term Limits strikes, again!
Sorry 81 is to damn old PERIOD!!!
It looks like she may have vision problems, too.
“ At some point people need to retire.”
We accept that these people put term limits on the presidency.
Not on themselves.
Thumbs up to that Dawg
should will get you exactly nowhere.
“start there”
The books about Biden staff having to wipe his ass will be on shelves soon.
Mitch will glitch again.
Large majority want age limits on all 3 branches.
There really shouldn’t even be women there. But a 80 year old grandma making the laws is insane and shows how low America has sunk.
Yeah, we aren’t the USSR. Their leaders were much younger. Brezhnev was 75 Chernenko died at 73, and drop off at 69. Even the USSR didn’t have people in their 80s and 90s lol
Apparently my Congress rep (until today) was in a dementia care facility for the last 6 months. Not a serious country
DING!! DING!!! DING!!!! WINNER!!
This wasn’t Pelosi falling...it was FOXX!
May his Holy Name be honored and glorified. Amen.

The Capitol building, constructed in the 1930s with an art deco design, features elevators that once had attendants until they were modernized in 1991. In 1994, one of the four elevators was extended to the 18th floor, which includes an observation deck offering a panoramic view of the city.
So, yes they have levators.
Perhaps she didn't want to wait for an elevator?
Trump will be older than that for his last entire year in office.
So who stays longer?
Dems shouldn’t be there in first place...as currently configured.
You must have misread my post. I clearly said whichever they choose. I did not express an opinion of where I would send them, but thanks for your reply.

Thank you to everyone for your prayers – just a few small cuts and I’m doing just fine.
