As a result, McCain will not be in Washington to vote on the GOP's tax bill, which is expected to take place early in the week. “He is grateful for the excellent care he continues to receive, and appreciates the outpouring of support from people all over the country. He looks forward to returning to Washington in January," McCain's office said. Republicans have won over two key votes for the measure, meaning they should have the razor-thin majority needed to pass the bill, even without McCain. MORE said Sunday he believes McCain would return to Washington if Republicans needed his vote. McCain received treatment at Walter Reed Medical Center last week for a viral infection, Dr. Mark Gilbert said in a statement on Sunday, adding that McCain is “responding positively” to his cancer treatment. He left for Arizona on Sunday. McCain announced in July he had been diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer. He has been undergoing treatment since.
