Chaffetz to Take Immediate Leave of Absence For Medical Emergency

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/...l-emergency-n2319279

House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz announced late Wednesday that he will be taking an emergency medical leave of absence from Congress for up to a month.

“Almost 12 years ago, I shattered several bones in my foot which required 14 screws and a metal plate to repair. Yes, I wish I could say I was cliff diving in Mexico but the truth is I fell off a ladder while repairing something in my garage.

The University of Utah doctors now recommend immediate surgery to remove all the hardware or I could be at risk for serious infection," the congressman wrote in an Instagram post.

Ugh, that sounds painful.

Chaffetz announces that 30 June 2017 will be his last day in Congress.

Not surprised at all by this. I think everyone kinda saw this coming.

I mostly appreciated his efforts in office.

I'm confused. He's too fucked up to work in the Congress but he's not too fucked up to sign a big contract with Fox? Is he getting the same disability package as Jesse Jackson jr?

I don't care what side you're on. Fuck all these assholes. Is he the one who's pushing for a $30K per year housing allowance?

I have a feeling that he will be pretty critical of Trump. I've lost a lot of respect for him in recent months.
