A spokesperson says Nebraska Republican U.S. Senator Ben Sasse has had two COVID-19 tests that came back negative, but Sasse will work from his Nebraska home for the next week just to be safe.
Sasse attended a gathering for Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett at the White House Rose Garden last month, and doctors advised him to stay inside as much as possible after interaction with people who were infected with COVID-19.
Several people who attended the event later tested positive for COVID-19, including President Trump and the First Lady.
The office of Sasse's Nebraska Republican colleague Deb Fischer confirms she has also tested negative.
Fischer also attended that White House Rose Garden event introducing the High Court nominee.
