Arizona Rep. Raúl Grijalva has tested positive for coronavirus, his office confirmed Saturday
Grijalva"was notified by the attending physician yesterday evening that he has tested positive for Covid-19," his communications director, Geoff Nolan, told CNN on Saturday. Because he had been at a hearing on Tuesday with Texas Republican Rep. Louie Gohmert, who tested positive for coronavirus on Wednesday,"out of precaution, Grijalva went into self-isolation on Wednesday until he got a test," Nolan said.
"Grijalva will be quarantining in his home in the Washington area, and some of the staffers who had been with him during the week are going to be tested as well, Nolan added. He noted that Grijalva wears a mask every day at the Capitol.Grijalva also praised House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's mandate requiring all House members and aides to wear masks on the floor"to keep members and staff safe from those looking to score quick political points," he said.
