Texas Congressman Al Green Removed From Trump’s Joint Session of Congress After Repeated Interruptions: ‘You Have No Right to Cut Medicaid’
Texas Congressman Al Green was removed from President Trump's joint session of Congress after repeatedly interrupting the president's speech.
Only a few minutes into President Trump’s address, Green stood up from his seat and shouted, “You have no mandate to cut Medicaid,” inciting boos from the Republican side of Congressional Hall. Members are engaging in willful and continuing breach of decorum, and the chair is prepared to direct the sergeant at arms to restore order to the joint session.” Green refused to let up despite the warning, declaring once again that the 47th president has “no mandate to cut Medicaid.” Johnson then quickly called for the sergeant at arms to remove Green from the joint session, which invoked some Republicans to sing the chorus from the 1969 Steam track, “Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye.”
