Intelligence panel chairman fractures his wrist
Rep. Mike Rogers is adding a (temporary) new accessory to his typical suit and tie: a cast.
The Michigan Republican says he fractured his wrist over the holiday weekend while playing with his teenage son, jesting to ITK in an email, “It appears twisting reporters’ arms to cover cybersecurity legislation has finally caught up to me.”He continued, “In all seriousness, in an outing with my 16-year-old son, and in an effort to compete with him, it ended in his favor.”
Rogers’s spokeswoman, Kelsey Knight, was unsure what activity led to her boss’s injury.
The Intelligence Committee chairman, a 49-year-old former FBI agent, is sporting a cast as the hairline fractures heal.
Rogers says following a few more visits to the doctor this week he expects “to be back to my normal schedule shortly.”
