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.

    Imagine a world without conservatives. Immense wastes of energy and time like this would be a thing of the past.

    Conservatism is a disease in need of a cure.

      I frequently do. A world without conservatives is essentially what I envision a “heaven” to be, not that I’m religious.
