Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., who is battling a brain tumor, was taken away from the congressional luncheon in convulsions.
Media outlets report that Kennedy was taken out of the Statuary Hall luncheon after suffering an apparent seizure - just a few minutes after Sen. Robert Byrd was removed in his wheelchair under the supervision of medical personnel.
Byrd was conscious and had been having trouble eating, according to a witness.
Kennedy, who underwent brain cancer surgery last year, was taken to the Rayburn room. Paramedics were called at 2:35PM EST.
President Barack Obama reportedly went out of the room with him, but reentered shortly after.
