A longtime Maryland Democrat and one of the longest-serving members in Congress survived a stroke over the weekend his team announced Tuesday.
Rep. Steny Hoyer, 85, has represented Maryland in Congress since first being elected in 1981.
'On Sunday night, August 11, Rep. Steny Hoyer experienced a mild ischemic stroke and sought medical treatment,' Hoyer spokesperson Margaret Mulkerrin wrote in a statement.
'Mr. Hoyer has responded well to treatment and has no lingering symptoms. He expects to resume his normal schedule next week.'
'Mr. Hoyer’s wife and family extend their deepest thanks to his medical team,' the statement concluded.

A Rush Limbaugh short clip. Don’t Give Up on America.
Hoyer, Pelosi, Biden, Schumer et al. What does this say about young democrats?
Ditto.
I wish he and his family well.
That would make a good tagline.
F-O-U-R! On the Golf Course that’s like a one-stroke penality.
I grew up in southern Illinois outside of St. Louis. Our Congressman, Melvin Price, was like that, and died in the saddle at age 83. In his later years, he never came home to the district, not even to campaign, because the seat was 100% safe. He would put up a couple of billboards to give the impression that there was an election, but that was it.
Please. Don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining.
I’d love to buy into your argument FRiend but I can’t.
I used to be a liberal and I know them better then they know themselves.
Trying to play nice with this scum gets you no where. They mistake kindness for weakness and then pounce.
I hope Hoyer suffers for all the misery he’s caused others.
Steny Hoyer
Re “… never understand why our leadership class wants to die in office...”
Out of pure spite for us peons.
They bilk us out of OUR hard earned money and spit in our faces till their last breath.
Another Feinstein dead in the chair for years and still voting
I hope he recovers fully and quickly.
What’s that supposed to mean?
Part of me would like to see term limits. But, the problem is the federal employees and their union would gain more power as they would become the keepers of institutional knowledge.
He was NOT the worst Dem by a
Long shot. Moderate? Maybe.
His spokesgal is also a doctor?
I’m so stealing that.
