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.

If I was Fetterman, it'd now be my personal pet peeve to subvert this dress code whenever I could by showing up in the most ridiculous-but-formally-correct outfits.
Yellow ties, mustard green coat, orange slacks?
How about this beauty?
That is brilliant.
We could only hope Fetterman would be so based.
I love it, but it just doesn't assault my eyes enough.
Literal clown suit
The Joker does wear a suit.
"Wanna know how I got these votes?"
I think the stereotypical clown suit would fit the rules. That'd be perfect.
Dress like Saul Goodman or the Joker

I wonder if Don Cherry's tailor does Big and Tall...
Most of us Americans probably aren’t familiar with Don Cherry, I wasn’t until I lived with a Canadian and found hockey.
Technically correct is the best kind of correct.
