Rep. Virginia Foxx Treated After Capitol Fall

News summary

81-year-old Congresswoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC) fell down marble stairs at the U.S. Capitol following a Speaker vote, sustaining some cuts and bleeding but remaining conscious and alert. Witnesses reported she was treated by medical personnel immediately after the fall, which occurred after she spoke with family in the gallery. Foxx later reassured the public via social media that she was doing fine, stating she had 'just a few small cuts' and humorously referring to herself as 'tougher than a $2 steak.' Her spokesperson confirmed that she was able to walk to the physician's office for further treatment. Foxx, who has served in Congress since 2005, represents North Carolina's 5th District and is the chair of the House Education Committee.
