Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) was hospitalized after nearly fainting at a vigil for several homeless men who were killed in New York City over the weekend.
The 73-year-old lawmaker was speaking to reporters in Manhattan’s Chinatown on Oct. 7 when she began to faint, according to the New York Post, which posted several photos of her laying on a backpack on a park bench. The New York Daily News also captured the scene.
