Rep. Mark DeSaulnier, D-Concord, was recently admitted to the hospital with complications from pneumonia and remains in serious but stable condition, his office announced Monday.
According to DeSaulnier’s chief of staff Betsy Arnold Marr, he developed the illness after suffering a fractured rib when he fell while running. DeSaulnier was admitted to the hospital Friday and is expected to remain there for at least the next several days.
“The office operations remain unchanged and staff will continue to serve our constituents,” Arnold Marr said. “We are grateful for your thoughts and well wishes during this time.”
DeSaulnier’s office plans to continue providing updates about his condition as they become available.

I’d bet he was trying to chew gum while he was running.
Please! Just stop the nasty comments. Tell me! What is gained by saying that?
popcorn what is gained by constantly talking bad about your president?It makes the country look weak to other countries that look for an opportunity to take revenge.You are a hypocrite with a capital WC.
Wishing Rep D a speedy recovery. Don’t care for his politics much, but seems like a decent enough guy. Get well soon!
I second that.
The is a difference between being critical of the President, any president of that matter, and his politics and having nasty comments when someone is ill or had an accident. I notice when Rush said he was diagnosed with lung cancer how many posted on Yahoo they couldn’t stand his politics or show, but wished him well in regards to his illness, I was one of them. Having said that I know there also was many liberals that wished for him to die as soon as possible. Left or right or the middle, watch out for karma.
I don’t care for his politics AT ALL, but I don’t wish harm on anybody. Best wishes
Those broken ribs hurt like mad.
Sounds like he may have the virus and is trying to hide it. Coughing can also break a rib.
This type of comment is very destructive and dangerous. Stop starting rumors. I hate this example of ignorance.
I don’t like him, but I certainly don’t wish him any harm. Hope he recovers soon.
Get your pneumonia shot, it’s even more important now since the COVIC-19 can lead to pneumonia.
Hoping for a quick recovery for Mark. Take it easy and surrender to Netflix when you’re resting at home
Hope he recovers, perhaps these events and previous health disclosures might be considered a sign to contemplate retirement.
I hope Mr. DeSaulnier feels better soon. As a former runner, I know how itchy people can get when they’re unable to get their miles in.
Wishing you full and speedy recovery!
I know how it is to break a rib because I had four broken at the same time! Complications definitely can develop. I pray he gets better soon!
Wish u a quick recovery from AARP to a dedicated Person .
He’s a good rep, always answers our questions and makes himself available.
I wish him a speedy recovery!
Get Well Soon Mark You’re doing a great job!
I believe we are lucky to have such a fine representative in Washington to watch our backs. Fortunately, the voters in our district agree as he wins elections. Get well quickly and make plans for November.
Oh my!! I pray for Mark’s speedy recovery. Kind of a terrible time to have health issues. Bless you Mark.
Don’t read anything partisan or political into this, but I completely agree.
Speedy recovery to you Congressman. I worked on your first campaign and have been a supporter ever since. Thank you for all you do to make our lives better. Much gratitude 🙏
This is just karma. After he has all his stupid town hall meetings about alleged gun violence and plotting to eliminate all of our constitutional rights and raise all our taxes. Also promoting the homeless population so that it continues to grow bigger and bigger at the cost of the taxpayers.
This liberal politician hates America and it shows.
And thank you for showing us how truly classless you really are. So happy you are the outlier on this thread. As much as I dislike trump I’d never wish him ill-will. Go crawl back under your rock.
Ugh! How hateful can you be? Yes, go back in your dark little world.
Shame on you.
Mark, praying for a full and speedy recovery for you…..
Wishing him a great recovery.
I don’t like his politics and I think he is worthless as a representative. However, that said, thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery.
Any updates to Mark’s status? I know HIPPA may play a part here, but he is a public official.
