“I suddenly and unexpectedly began to feel unwell. This was due to several factors, including anxiety, exhaustion, and, regrettably, the wine I had with dinner. In an abundance of caution, I did not drive home and remained in Hartford until the following morning,” Comey said in a statement.
“This is a chamberwide thing that had to be addressed,” Ritter said.
House Majority Leader Jason Rojas said Comey apologized to her colleagues and her constituents.
“I think we’re all ready to move on and we engage in the right behaviors people expect us to while we’re here,” Rojas said.
