Democratic lawmaker has triple bypass
Rep. Mark Pocan (D-Wis.) on Wednesday underwent a triple bypass surgery as a pre-emptive measure for a cardiac issue.
“The surgery went well and Mark is looking forward to a speedy recovery so he can return to Washington soon to continue fighting for the people of Wisconsin,” his office said in a press release.
Pocan had the surgery performed at UnityPoint Health-Meriter in Madison.
Pocan, 53, represents Wisconsin’s second congressional district. He was first elected in 2012.
