Florida House ‘Dress Code’ Targets Women’s Shoulders

January 27, 2023 · 11:03 am ET · Leave a Comment

Florida Politics: “Republican leadership of the Florida House has posted flyers throughout the Capitol showing what to wear — and perhaps more strikingly, what not to wear.”

“The flyer breaks down a dress code for three different scenarios — when in the chamber, when Members are in the building, and when Members are not in the building. The required attire is, not surprisingly, most formal when in the House chamber.”

“What sticks out though, is the requirement that women never show their shoulders when House Members are present in the building, whether in the chamber or not.”
