The Senate sergeant at arms and relevant congressional staff have been notified about changes to the chamber's informal dress code, which will go into effect on Monday.
I can understand if they have some important meeting. If some foreign dignitary is going to be stopping by, you'll want people to dress up. However, this should be the case for Senators and staffers. If it's just a normal work day, there's no reason that the staffers can't go with casual clothing.
Yeah that's pretty much what I mean, with this change, the senate is proclaiming that there's no need for formal dress on a "regular day in the office" (which I 100% agree with), but to make that declaration, while still insisting your staffers stay formal is literally saying "We get to be comfortable because we're important and rich, and you can stay uncomfortable, because who gives a shit what you want."
Seriously, wtf sense does that make?
