Newly elected Kansas Congressman Jake LaTurner tested positive for COVID-19 after participating in a House vote Wednesday evening on a challenge to President-elect Joe Biden’s electoral votes.
LaTurner, a Republican from Pittsburg, received the positive test results late Wednesday, his chief of staff told The Star early Thursday as lawmakers continued to debate a challenge to Biden’s victory.
“Congressman LaTurner is following the advice of the House physician and CDC guidelines and, therefore, does not plan to return to the House floor for votes until he is cleared to do so,” Braden Dreiling, LaTurner’s chief of staff, said in a text message.
Dreiling said LaTurner received the test in accordance with the District of Columbia’s travel guidelines, which require visitors to be tested. He said LaTurner was not experiencing any symptoms.
