Representative Al Green was ejected from the House chamber for heckling President Donald Trump during his joint address to Congress on Tuesday night.
Green, a Democratic lawmaker from Houston in Texas, stood up and shouted ‘Mr President, you don’t have a mandate!’ just minutes into Trump’s address, referring to Medicaid cuts.
He was immediately drowned out by Republicans shouting “U-S-A!,” before House Speaker Mike Johnson ordered his removal from the chamber.
Green is a fierce critic of President Trump, and called for the impeachment of the president during his first term in office.
