Rep. Walter Jones (R-NC) is in hospice at his Farmville home, according to local NBC affiliate WITN.
Jones, 75, has reportedly been struggling with an illness serious enough that he hasn’t been able to cast votes on the House floor since September. He has served in Congress for 24 years.
Another blow to the little remaining sanity in the GOP.
and he’s been getting paid and benefits since Sept ? SMH
Holy crap. That’s really bad news.
Seems that way just from his Wikipedia page. Sane and decent. I hope he feels like he spent his life well.
Just read it as well, and he does seem to be a truly decent human being.
