Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut, a rising star in the Democratic Party, is being monitored in a medical center after he suffered a stroke Saturday afternoon, his office said on Sunday.
"The doctors are encouraged by his progress, he is awake and alert, and we are optimistic he will make a full recovery," Murphy's chief of staff said in a statement. His office didn't immediately provide more details.
Murphy, 53 years old, was taken to a hospital after experiencing numbness in his arm during his son's hockey game, his team said.
Murphy, who has been mentioned as a possible presidential contender in 2028, has served in his seat since 2013. He is up for reelection in November 2030.
