U.S. Senate unanimously passes formal dress code after uproar
axios.com
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.

Please don't take this from men. It's like 1 of the only 3 socially acceptable male fashion accessories.
We already let them take the codpiece from us
Speak for yourself
As far as I'm concerned, a T-Shirt with a funny slogan and shorts is acceptable male fashion.
