Rep. Donald Norcross (D-NJ) has been hospitalized with no indication of when he will return to the halls of Congress.
His office issued a statement Monday saying the 66-year-old had an "emergency medical event likely related to his gallbladder."

This is the third Democratic seat that lacks voting power. Both Rep. Sylvester Turner (D-TX) and Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-AZ) died in March, and the special elections to replace them have yet to take place.
Without Norcross, the House has 220 Republicans to 212 Democrats.
Norcross is receiving medical treatment at UNC Rex Hospital until he is cleared to fly and can return home to recover. The Congressman was first elected to New Jersey's 1st congressional district in 2014.
