Like a scene from “Monty Python and the Holy Grail,” Sen. Thom Tillis wants everyone to know he’s not dead yet. During the 2017 ACLI Capitol Challenge, Tillis was taken to the hospital after passing out beside the race course. The GOP senator is going to run the race again this year, but won’t eat the same thing the night before the run as he did last year. See Roll Call’s At the Table with Tillisfor more from this conversation, hosted by Heard on the Hill reporter and ACLI challenger Alex Gangitano.
