John Fetterman scrubs up well in a suit and flashes a smile after Senate REVERSED decision to dumb-down dress code

Senator John Fetterman was photographed wearing a suit and tie instead of his signature hoodie and shorts after the Senate dress code was reinstated.

The great tailoring scandal about him distinctive appearance came to an end after the Senate unanimously passed a resolution establishing the formal dress code.

And as promised, Fetterman beamed as he entered the President’s office in the Senate chamber on Thursday, giving his new outfit two thumbs up as he entered.

While the Pennsylvania senator wore a full suit, white shirt and sky blue tie, his shoes continued to provide a subtle nod to his more casual ensembles in the form of black sneakers.

This week, a resolution put forward by fellow Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin, W.Va., passed unanimously without a formal vote and clarified that the Senate floor would have a formal dress code.

Hours earlier, Fetterman had announced that he would wear a suit and tie during his speech or as president of the Senate.

Fetterman, like others, could still wear his signature attire and vote from the cloakroom at the edge of the Senate floor.

“While we have never had an official dress code, the events of the past week have made us all feel that formalizing it is the right path forward,” Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said on the Senate floor .

Last week, Schumer had abolished the unofficial dress code, sparking outrage from conservatives and even some liberals.

Republicans accused Schumer of scrapping the code as a concession to Fetterman, who consistently appeared in casual attire until Thursday.

The great sartorial scandal over John Fetterman’s signature hoodie-and-shorts has now come to an end after the Senate unanimously passed a resolution issuing a formal dress code

The resolution, put forward by fellow Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin, W.Va., passed unanimously without a formal vote and clarified that the Senate floor would have a formal dress code.

“For 234 years, every senator who has had the honor of serving on this distinguished body has assumed that there were a set of basic written rules of decency, conduct and civility, including a dress code,” Manchin said.

But because the dress code didn’t really exist, Manchin and Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, decided to write one.

Earlier this week, Fetterman called on his colleagues to be as excited about New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez’s bribery indictment as he is about his outfits.

“This week, I hope my colleagues will fully address Senator Menendez’s alleged systemic corruption with the same force and speed with which they raised concerns about our dress code,” Fetterman said in a statement Tuesday.
