Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) said he would miss part of the Senate impeachment trial against President Donald Trump to spend time with his wife, who has cancer.

“In December, following the House Judiciary Committee markup of the Articles of Impeachment against President Donald J. Trump, my wife was admitted to the hospital where she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She has undergone surgery and is taking further steps to address the spread of the cancer,” Nadler said in a statement on Sunday.
