Overview

• Rep. Chrissy Houlahan (D-PA) filed a resolution to censure Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) for describing Rep. Al Green's cane as a 'pimp cane' during a televised interview.
• The comment followed Green's protest during President Trump's congressional address, where he was ejected for repeatedly shouting about Medicaid cuts.
• Boebert's remarks have been widely criticized as racist and ableist, with some pointing to her own history of disruptive behavior in Congress.
• The resolution calls for Boebert to publicly present herself in the House for censure, citing her comments as a breach of decorum and conduct.
• While the Republican-controlled House makes the resolution's passage unlikely, the incident highlights ongoing partisan tensions and debates over enforcement of congressional rules.
