WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A still-hospitalized Sen. Tim Johnson of South Dakota, whose brain surgery two months ago raised the possibility that Democrats could lose control of the Senate, has co-sponsored his first piece of legislation since he fell ill, his office said on Thursday.
While Johnson remains focused on daily therapy, the Democratic senator has read memos from his staff and has signed on as a co-sponsor of the Emergency Farm Relief Act of 2007, his office said."This is a first step for the senator," said Drey Samuelson, Johnson's chief of staff. "As time allows, he has begun reviewing work. True to form, Tim is a hard worker."
