Senator Dianne Feinstein of California was hospitalized on Tuesday following a fall at her San Francisco home. The 90-year-old Democrat was later released after scans indicated no major injuries. Feinstein, the oldest sitting member of Congress, has had various health issues in recent months, including shingles, Ramsay Hunt syndrome, and encephalitis. Concerns about her health have sparked discussions among Democrats and Republicans about her potential retirement. The senator’s daughter, Katherine, has a power-of-attorney agreement that grants her some say over Feinstein’s affairs. While power of attorney does not necessarily imply incapacity, it raises questions about her ability to continue serving as a public servant. Feinstein has held her position as a senator representing millions of Americans since 1992.
