Can he vote on Senate business during this time?

Only if the Senate allows proxy voting. Last session, the Senate only allowed proxy voting in committees, but not for floor votes. I don't know if the rules have been changed.

Don’t worry. Plenty of Senate RINOs will ‘reach across the aisle’ and ‘pair’ with Fetterman for floor votes. A Republican will abstain or be absent from voting so the end result is Fetterman’s absence will make no difference to the outcome.
