Boebert Proposes Cocktail Hour in Congress Following Dress Code Changes in Senate

WASHINGTON (Satire News) — Riding on the wave of the Senate’s recent relaxation of the dress code, Congresswoman Lauren Boebert has submitted an official request to the House Speaker’s office to don a cocktail dress during congressional sessions, with a twist—she’s also suggesting that cocktail hour be incorporated into the daily legislative routine.

“The Senate gets to wear shorts; I don’t see why I shouldn’t be able to wear my favorite sequined number,” Boebert reportedly told colleagues. “And if we’re all dressed for a party, might as well have a martini while discussing the national debt.”

The Colorado Representative’s proposal, named the “Congressional Couture and Cocktail Act,” suggests that legislators be allowed to enjoy one cocktail of their choice during the final hour of their session. According to sources, the proposal promises to “ease the tension of bipartisan debates and bring a little sparkle to otherwise drab proceedings.”

While some conservative lawmakers raised eyebrows at Boebert’s audacious request, others found the idea quite refreshing. “If I can wear my Hawaiian shirt and sip on a mojito while voting on bills, I’m all for it,” chuckled a Southern Congressman who wished to remain anonymous.

However, some are worried that the proposal could lead to unproductive sessions. “The last thing we need is to confuse the filibuster with karaoke night,” commented a concerned Senator from Vermont.

In response to queries, Speaker of the House commented, “While we encourage individual expression and strive to maintain a congenial atmosphere, we do have to ensure that the decorum of the House is upheld. We’ll consider the proposal, but I have reservations about replacing the gavel with a cocktail shaker.”

The bill is currently pending review, but insiders claim that a few Representatives have already stocked up on cocktail umbrellas and miniature party flags in anticipation.
