Mr. Speaker, you're the speaker of the House. What happens to somebody like Al Green when he pulls off a stunt like that? Well, We escorted [Al Green] off the floor. He couldn't behave himself. It's quite shameful. It brought shame on. I'm sure his constituents are not proud of that tonight. But I suspect that there will be a censure resolution brought on the floor to discipline him.
