House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., has greatly improved his long-term health prognosis with an aggressive treatment of his multiple myeloma, a blood cancer.
"We had quick decisions to make in the hospital, which was do we go into an aggressive form of chemotherapy?" Scalise said Wednesday at a news conference, referring to treatment decisions made with his oncologist from New Orleans, who he said has been "phenomenal."
Scalise, the No. 2 House Republican, praised the decades-long FDA approved treatments for his cancer type, adding he has made a "decision to aggressively pursue it" and is one month into it. A Continuing Resolution is a common way for a deadlocked Congress to keep the government funding going as fiscal debates are ongoing, but many conservatives in the House lament that is always the result when Democrats oppose spending cuts.
