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.

    How about instead of making sure they wear the correct clothing, you make sure they do their god damn fucking job of making life better for the citizens. Because that hasn’t been happening for decades now and what they wear while fucking over Americans hardly matters.

      The crappy thing is it’s our job as citizens to make sure they do their job but too many Americans just don’t seem to care. Getting half of eligible voters to vote in a non presidential election is nearly impossible.
