H. RES. 193


Censuring Representative Al Green of Texas.


IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

March 5, 2025

Mr. Crane (for himself, Mr. Biggs of Arizona, Mr. Harris of Maryland, Mr. Harris of North Carolina, Mr. Collins, Mr. Higgins of Louisiana, Mr. Ogles, Mr. Cline, Mr. Burlison, Mr. Clyde, and Mr. Gill of Texas) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Ethics


RESOLUTION

Censuring Representative Al Green of Texas.

    Whereas the annual State of the Union address is a momentous occasion for the President to address the Nation;

    Whereas the speech is a respectful occasion, conducted within the framework of democratic institutions and traditions;

    Whereas, on March 4, 2024, during the joint session of Congress convened pursuant to House Concurrent Resolution 11, the President, speaking at the invitation of the House and the Senate, had his remarks interrupted by Representative Al Green of Texas, Mr. Green;

    Whereas Representative Green continued his interruption, despite admonition from nonpartisan staff of the House of Representatives and from the Speaker;

    Whereas Representative Green was removed from the joint session by the Sergeant at Arms;

    Whereas the conduct of Representative Green was a breach of decorum and degraded the proceedings of the joint session, to the discredit of the House; and

    Whereas the actions of Representative Green were not only a breach of civility but also an affront to the dignity of the House and Senate, and to the principles of mutual respect that are essential for the functioning of the legislative process: Now, therefore, be it

Resolved,

That —

(1) Representative Al Green of Texas be censured;

(2) Representative Al Green forthwith present himself in the well of the House of Representatives for the pronouncement of censure; and

(3) Representative Al Green be censured with the public reading of this resolution by the Speaker.
