Hoodies and gym shorts on the Senate floor? Sen. Dick Durbin wants more debate before his chamber sheds its dress rules.
Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., walks on Capitol Hill in Washington on Sept. 21, 2023.Georgia U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green, hard-line Republican loudmouth from the South, finally has said something with which — gasp! — I agree.
I was raised to believe you should show your respect for important institutions, jobs and events by dressing in a way that won’t be mistaken for a visiting high school tour group. With that in mind, I was encouraged to see Greene calling for maintaining the dress code because of “etiquette and respect for our institutions.”
Now, like many other Republicans, she is pinning the blame for Schumer’s dress code update on Pennsylvania Democratic Sen. John Fetterman, whose sartorial tastes lean to gym shorts and hoodies. Standing at 6 feet, 8 inches, he is a striking standout among most of his colleague in the hallowed marble halls of Congress. In his typical suffer-no-fools-gladly style, he responded to Greene’s scolding with about as much dignity as it deserved.
