TL;DR Summary

Pressure is mounting on Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) to step down as her prolonged absence from the Senate stymies Democratic business in the chamber with no clear end date. Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) and Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) have called for her resignation, citing her inability to carry out her responsibilities due to her health condition. Feinstein has been absent from the Senate since early March when she was diagnosed with shingles. Feinstein responded with an acknowledgement that she would not be in the Capitol Monday when the Senate reconvenes after a two-week recess, and she requested to be temporarily replaced on the Judiciary Committee.
