Mississippi’s Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann (R) collapsed on the floor of the state Senate Wednesday.

Several people rushed to assist Hosemann and the session was called into recess.
Lieutenant Governor Office spokesperson Hannah Milliet told the Clarion Ledger, that Hosemann is “doing well.”
“Lieutenant Governor Hosemann is doing well and in good spirits,”Milliet said. “He appreciates all of the medical staff and is eager to return to work.”
