This resolution removes Representative Al Green of Texas from the House Committee on Financial Services due to his conduct during the March 4, 2025 State of the Union address. According to the resolution, Representative Green repeatedly interrupted the President's speech despite warnings from House staff and the Speaker, and was removed from the chamber by the Sergeant at Arms. The resolution states that Green's actions violated House decorum and dignity, and notes that he expressed no regret, telling colleagues he would "do it again" and even led a protest against his subsequent censure on March 6. The resolution argues that this conduct breaches the House rule requiring members to behave in a manner that reflects creditably on the institution, warranting his removal from the committee. The resolution was sponsored by a group of House Republicans and referred to the Committee on Ethics for consideration.
