In a follow-up statement to The Huffington Post, the Senator's spokesman clarified his schedule a bit further.

"He will have to miss votes tomorrow as he has to undergo tests for next week's surgery," said Jennifer Hoelzer. "But he will be around this weekend if there are votes. He will be out all day Monday for the surgery itself, but if everything goes well, we expect him to be discharged from the hospital on Tuesday and then we will play it by ear after that."

That Wyden will be playing it "by ear" so soon after surgery is, undoubtedly, welcomed news -- not just for Democrats, who could use his help on complicated votes, but for those who know the imprint Wyden has on the legislative process and consider him one of the more indispensable thinkers and lawmakers on the Hill.

Sounds good. Looks like he will still be around to vote.

I agree I doubt he will miss the vote on the DA plus the DA wll like come late next week if anything because remember they have to file cloture and all that so most likely he wont miss it. STILL LETS KEEP CALLING AND FAXING
