The White House has not confirmed whether President Donald Trump has contacted Republican Senator Mitch McConnell, who has been absent from the Senate. As calls for congressional term limits grow, the absence of the 84-year-old McConnell, who has faced health issues, is impacting Trump's legislative agenda, particularly the SAVE Act. Trump expressed support for term limits during a recent event, highlighting the importance of addressing aging politicians in Congress. Proposed amendments by Senators Ted Cruz and Katie Britt would limit senators to two six-year terms and House members to three two-year terms. The discussion around term limits has intensified as McConnell's prolonged absence raises questions about his ability to serve. Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear has requested proof of McConnell's capacity to serve or a resignation, amid public demands for transparency regarding the senator's health status.
