Harris \u200dclaims that green&#8217;s outbursts,particularly during \u200cPresident Donald Trump\u2019s address to Congress,violated the decorum of the House. Green was\u2062 recently censured by the House, with support from all Republicans and ten \u2064Democrats, after he protested during the president&#8217;s\u2063 speech and sang \u201cWe\u200d Shall Overcome\u201d while facing his censure.<\/p>\n<p>Harris highlighted that Green&#8217;s \u2063actions disrupted House proceedings both during the president&#8217;s \u200caddress and when\u2063 he was supposed \u200dto read the censure articles. He expressed frustration that Green did not accept the punishment and suggested that House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA)\u2063 should bring further resolutions regarding green&#8217;s conduct to \u200dthe floor. Additionally, Representative Andy Ogles (R-TN) has supported similar actions against other Democrats who \u2062shouted during the\u2064 censure discussions.<\/p>\n<p>Amidst this, some \u200cDemocrats are expressing the need for &#8220;radical civility&#8221; and acknowledging that Green&#8217;s behavior detracted from their message. Former President\u2064 Trump\u200b also criticized\u2063 Green, labeling him as a &#8220;low IQ&#8221; individual\u2062 and an embarrassment to Congress.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Andy Harris contends Al Green broke &lsquo;all decorum&rsquo; with congressional outbursts<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2031875\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Rep. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/author\/rep-andy-harris\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Andy Harris <\/a>(R-MD) urged House Speaker <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/mike-johnson\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Mike Johnson<\/a> (R-LA) to strip Rep.
