CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (AP) — Iowa Republican congresswoman Ashley Hinson has been hospitalized with a kidney infection, her office said Monday.
Hinson’s chief of staff, Jimmy Peacock, issued a statement saying Hinson was admitted Sunday night to a hospital in Cedar Rapids.
“She is looking forward to being back on the road soon,” Peacock said.
Hinson’s congressional office did not immediately respond to a message asking when Hinson was expected to be released.
Hinson is running for reelection to Iowa’s 2nd Congressional District seat and is being challenged by Democrat Liz Mathis, an Iowa state senator.
