Senate Votes To Put An End To John Fetterman's Lazy Dress Code

On Wednesday evening, the United States Senate voted to formalize the dress code after Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) announced the relaxing of restrictions that allowed for non-business attire to be worn in the Senate chambers in a way to protect Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA).

Throughout the past week, Fetterman, who normally wears hoodies and gym shorts, mocked those criticizing Schumer's change. He told reporters that it was nice to have the option to wear whatever he wanted on the Senate floor.

According to Newsmax, the Senate voted unanimously in favor of the return to form with the resolution, written by Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT), laying out 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."

Prior to this point, the Senate did not have a formalized dress code for members but as Fetterman continued to disrespect the upper chamber with the lack of formal dress, senators felt the need to institute a code.

"Though we've never had an official dress code, the events over the past week have made us all feel as though formalizing one is the right path forward," Schumer said about the passing of the resolution.

"Senate dress code is restored passing senate unanimously 2nite Thankfully Sen Schumer’s unprecedented decision was overruled by the will of the senate," Sen. Chuck Grassley wrote in celebration. "God bless COMMON SENSE."

In response to the resolution, Sen. Fetterman released a statement with a picture of Kevin Bacon shrugging his shoulders.
