Congressman Womack said, “I’ve had the honor of presiding over the House floor many times, particularly during contentious votes and heightened emotions. It’s a duty I take very seriously due to my deep respect for the institution. I believe it’s one thing to be cautioned by the Speaker—as I have often reminded people to heed the gavel—but it’s another thing to completely disregard the authority of the Speaker and the decorum of the People’s House. This behavior has no place in the halls of Congress. Mr. Green deserves the consequences of his actions.”
Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) has represented Arkansas’ Third Congressional District since 2011. He is a member of the House Appropriations Committee.
