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.

    These people don’t know what the country needs and they don’t care. They spend their time and our money making it illegal for people to dress in a way that makes them unhappy. Absolutely fucking useless.
