Bill Pascrell hospitalized

News summary

Rep. Bill Pascrell Jr., at 87 years old, has been readmitted to the hospital just days after being discharged following a lengthy stay for respiratory issues that required breathing assistance. His health challenges have raised questions about his capacity to run for reelection in November, despite his office stating he intends to do so. Pascrell has until August 27 to withdraw from the ballot, which would allow New Jersey Democrats to select a replacement candidate. He has historically won his district by substantial margins, including a recent victory over Republican Billy Prempeh in 2022. Concerns over his age and health are heightened as he seeks a 15th term in Congress and would become the oldest member if reelected. His latest hospitalization follows a summer marked by health complications, including a previous heart surgery in 2020.
