WASHINGTON—Sen. Al Franken re-emerged on Capitol Hill Monday after more than a week away from Congress, apologizing to his supporters, his colleagues and the women who have accused him of sexual misconduct, while making clear he intends to remain in office. “I know that I’ve let a lot of people down—the people of Minnesota, my colleagues, my staff, my supporters and everyone who has counted on me to be a champion for women,” said Mr. Franken, a Minnesota Democrat, in a brief press conference.
