Boehner to have back surgery

By Jessica Wehrman | Tuesday, February 26, 2008, 02:35 PM

House Minority Leader John Boehner, R-West Chester, will have back surgery Friday morning at Bethesda Naval Hospital in Bethesda, Md., his office announced Tuesday.

His recovery will prevent him from attending the 17th Annual Farm Forum in his district on Saturday, March 1, but he is expected to resume his full schedule next week. The farm forum will go on as planned, but without Boehner in attendance.
