Sen. Susan Collins blasted Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s new dress code directive, which she said “debases the institution.” 

The upper chamber will no longer enforce a dress code at all, accommodating Democrat Sen. John Fetterman, who is known for wearing gym clothes and hoodies. Others entering the chamber, like staffers, for example, must still comply with the dress code, which means coats and ties for men and business attire for women.
