Ward 4 Councilwoman Muriel Bowser underwent "routine" surgery and will be recuperating at home over the next few weeks, she told constituents in a newsletter.
Although Bowser won't be in the John A. Wilson Building, she will be working from home, the newsletter said.
The surgery occurred on Monday.
A source close to Bowser said the D.C. Councilwoman was mum on the details, but she didn't seem "too concerned."
