McConnell0:09has not been medically cleared to leave0:10a rehabilitation facility as of Monday.0:13The timeline shows weeks of limited0:14communication from McConnell's camp.0:19In his letter to McConnell, Beshear0:21argued that a written physician's note0:22is insufficient and called for verbal0:24proof of the Senator's capacity to0:26reason and speak.
