The Senate passed a resolution Wednesday to make business attire a requirement on the Senate floor.
The moves comes after backlash to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D-N.Y.) directive to scuttle the chamber’s informal dress code, which was widely viewed to be inspired by Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.).
The bipartisan resolution requires that business attire be worn on the floor of the Senate, “which for men shall include a coat, tie, and slacks or other long pants.”
The bill does not spell out what the attire includes for women.
resolutions don’t do anything do they?
Its the legal version of “we offer thoughts and prayers statement of the following…”
Seems blatantly discriminatory on the basis of gender
Discrimination is the point of every dress code. They can’t have commoners walking freely through the House of Lords, or whatever these fuckheads want to call themselves this incarnation.
They should be hung from the roof upside down and naked. Instead we get to watch them bicker like children over the scraps of the government they’ve yet to destroy.
You mean no more antler helmets?
Pass a budget. Nobody should be getting paid until then. The 20 republican extremists holding the entire country hostage should be fined exorbitantly every day they refuse to work with everyone to pass a budget.
Fuck stuff like dress codes. I could give less of a shit if everyone was naked, literally doesn’t matter vs getting the government properly funded.
They don’t care about us at all and it shows.
