House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer has tested positive for COVID-19 and is experiencing mild symptoms, the representative tweeted Tuesday afternoon. He added that he is vaccinated and boosted.
The 82-year-old from Maryland said he will work from home this week and use proxy voting.
His announcement came just days after fellow lawmaker Mitt Romney said he tested positive for the virus. Virginia Senator Mark Warner, Arizona Representative Raúl Grijalva and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have also announced positive test results in recent weeks.
