Steube spent four days in the hospital after he was knocked from a ladder on Wednesday and fell 25 feet. 

A bystander witnessed the fall and called 911. The lawmaker was then rushed to Sarasota Memorial's intensive care unit.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., spoke withe Steube last week, following the incident, to inform the congressman of his committee assignment, serving on the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government.
