HEADS UP!

'Sen. Dianne Feinstein's office confirms the California Democrat will return to the Senate Tuesday evening after a prolonged absence as she recovered from shingles.

On the news of Feinstein's return, Schumer said he is "glad that my friend Dianne is back in the Senate and ready to roll up her sleeves and get to work. After talking with her multiple times over the past few weeks, it's clear she's back where she wants to be and ready to deliver for California."'
