Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) is back at the U.S. Capitol after being treated for clinical depression.
On Monday, a video showed Fetterman emerging from the back of an SUV wearing his usual gym shorts and a black hoodie.
As reporters greeted him, he waved and continued to walk toward the building.
“How are you feeling senator?” one reporter asked.
Another asked, “Are you confident you can serve the full six years?”
“Great to be back!” he responded before turning and walking away.
Watch the video below:
In a statement in February, Fetterman’s chief of staff, Adam Jentleson, said, “Senator John Fetterman checked himself into Walter Reed National Military Medical Center to receive treatment for clinical depression.”
“While John has experienced depression off and on throughout his life, it only became severe in recent weeks,” he continued.
Jentleson explained the attending physician of Congress recommended inpatient care for Fetterman.
