House Democrat Mark DeSaulnier hospitalized in critical condition after injury

Democratic Congressman Mark DeSaulnier isn’t exactly a household name across the nation. But he’s becoming one today, for highly unfortunate reasons. After falling and injuring himself, he’s now in critical condition. DeSaulnier’s staff posted this message just a few minutes ago:

With so much of the nation’s focus on the coronavirus right now, it’s easy to forget that people are also being hospitalized for other dire reasons. We wish the best to Mark DeSaulnier and his loved ones.
