As the oldest senator in the oldest senate (by average age), Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) reportedly faces significant, bipartisan concerns regarding her mental health. A recent San Francisco Chronicle article included a report from one of Feinstein’s colleagues–another Democratic lawmaker from California. That official recounted a meeting during which “they had to reintroduce themselves to Feinstein multiple times.”
Feinstein, nearing her 89th birthday, released a statement saying although she’s spent the last year grieving her husband, “there’s no question I’m still serving and delivering for the people of California, and I’ll put my record up against anyone’s.”
