Congressman Al Green and fellow Democrats began singing the civil rights song “We Shall Overcome,” after the House voted to censure the Texas lawmaker.
Green was given the rebuke for heckling and waving his cane at Donald Trump during the president’s joint session of Congress. Ten Democrats joined Republicans to vote for the censure.
At least some Dems stood by him and sang along in I guess protest of his censure. It’s not enough but it’s far more than pretty much any Dem has been willing to do.
