Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-OK) “underwent emergency heart surgery in Tulsa on Friday after a routine test showed extreme blockage in five arteries,” the Oklahoman reports.
“Inhofe said it would be a few days before it is safe to fly on an airplane and he wasn’t interested in driving back to Washington while recuperating. It is not clear when the Senate will hold more roll call votes regarding the partial government shutdown.”
