Former astronaut Mark Kelly says Gabrielle Giffords is “still improving” and she’d like to run for another term. Kelly tells ABC’s “Good Morning America” his job is to “make sure she can get better so she can go back to her career.”

Kelly says Giffords is working on just stringing her sentences together and says viewers didn’t see that so much in Monday night’s taped ABC interview.

Kelly says his wife hasn’t made the decision yet whether to seek another term, but that she’ll know when the time is right.
