The office of Senator Ben Ray Luján released a statement Tuesday afternoon stating that he suffered from a stroke. Lujan’s Chief of Staff Carlos Sanchez said the U.S senator was experiencing dizziness and fatigue on Thursday morning, which prompted him to check himself into Christus St. Vincent Regional Hospital in Santa Fe.

Irony
Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, social media companies like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube did little while COVID-19 related misinformation spread on their platforms – fueling distrust in public health officials, promoting conspiracy theories, and putting lives at risk. Online platforms must stop the spread of deadly misinformation, and I’m proud to introduce this legislation with Senator Klobuchar to hold these companies accountable,” said Luján. “As COVID-19 cases rise among the unvaccinated, so has the amount of misinformation surrounding vaccines on social media. Lives are at stake.”
