      Figured $200 is too much for a staffer...

              I remember Tom Landry… And even more recently, Ditka always wore a tie and almost always a jacket. Mike Nolan and Jack Del Rio were two coaches in the 2000s that wore suits…

                  Compromise.

                  $20 on Fridays allows Senator, staffer or reporter to wear jeans and a collared shirt within the Senate Chambers. The collective pot will rotate among six charities which will be chosen by a bipartisan committee at the beginning of each year.

                            Why are they all hoodies? I don’t think any of those guys would wear hoodies except for Teddy, and his would have been camouflage.

                                    Senate Restores Formal Dress Code


                                    A resolution to reinstate the Senate dress code passed in the chamber unanimously Wednesday night, following more than a week of Republican backlash against the decision to drop the standards.

                                    Lawmakers in the chamber will be required to wear business attire, including coats, ties, and slacks for men, and dresses and suits for women, as a result of the resolution introduced last week by Senators Joe Manchin and Mitt Romney. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer revoked the informal rules earlier this month after Democratic senator John Fetterman routinely started showing up in casual garb such as hoodies and basketball shorts.

                                    “Though we’ve never had an official dress code, the events over the past week have made us all feel as though formalizing one is the right path forward,” Schumer said on the chamber floor Wednesday.

                                    In response to the restoration of the formal dress code, Fetterman released a statement consisting only of a photo of Kevin James as the character Doug Heffernan in the hit sitcom, The King of Queens, according to NBC News.

                                    Republican senator Chuck Grassley, who railed against the initial relaxation of the dress code, wrote on X after the final vote came down: “Senate dress code is restored passing senate unanimously 2nite Thankfully Sen Schumer’s unprecedented decision was overruled by the will of the senate. God bless COMMON SENSE.”

                                      A unanimous decision? So Fetterman gave in, too?

                                        The nyt piece said Manchin was in communication with him to get him on board.

                                        Thank you for your attention to this matter.

                                          A unanimous decision? So Fetterman gave in, too?

                                          Can't they declare "unanimous consent" without a vote?

                                          So, unanimous may not mean everyone.
