The United States Senate will no longer enforce a dress code for members of the upper house elected by those they serve.
"However, others entering the chamber must comply with the dress code. Coats/ties for men. Business attire for women," Chad Pergram, the Senior Congressional Correspondent for Fox News tweeted.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D.-New York, quietly sent the directive to the Senate's Sergeant at Arms, news website Axios reported.
The change allows Sen. John Fetterman, D.-Penn., to continue wearing his trademark "hoodies and gym shorts" while working for Americans.
Fetterman was previously praised for "turning heads" and "redefining fashion in the stuffy Senate" during his recovery following a six-week stay at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, where he was treated for "clinical depression" and "fitted for hearing aids for hearing loss that had made it harder for him to communicate."
The senator even found a "workaround" to the legislative body's dress code rules.
"He votes from the doorway of the Democratic cloakroom or the side entrance, making sure his ‘yay’ or ‘nay’ is recorded before ducking back out."

“The democrats can start wearing their Nazi uniforms….”
Bingo!!!
Fetterman
Same. If I become a Senator, you'll see me in a coat and tie every time I go out in the public.
This country is beyond the sh!t hole stage. Good grief. Now we get to see Herman Munster’s brain damaged grandson walk around in crap most bums wouldn’t wear. Our enemies are winning without firing a single damn shot.
Have them show up for work with outfits like race car drivers with all of their sponsors logos sewn on. Include hats with logos all over them too. If Rep. Jamie Raskin (D) wants to wear a diaper on his head, why not a ball cap with logos all over it?
Have them sew Ukrainian, Mexican, UN, and WEF flags on their uniforms as well.
Have them wear clothing with Nike logos on it, made by Uighar slave labor in Communist China.
Absolutely disgusting.
Speech and debate in the Age of Fetterman.

Old farts will wear their Jammies and slippers and bibs.
We’ll said.
So, because of Franken-Linus, decorum is done away with.
Costumes might be a better description.
Now the Democrats can wear their Antifa uniforms in the Senate.

Damn Autocorrect…
RE:Nadler in a dress?
On an MTV fashion feature in the late 1980s the female host said “This one is what women call the deal maker. If she wears the little black dress or LBD and the guy doesn’t make a commitment she just moves on.”
disgusting...
So, no standards for senators, but high standards for anyone else there.
Don’t really see anyone noticing that one.
The Senate needs to reduce themselves to the lowest common denominator.
