House censures Representative Al Green following repeated disruptions at State of the Union address

26 House members were censured in the first 230 years of U.S. history — 5 more have been censured in just the last 4 years

H.Res. 189 passed 224–198, with 10 Democrats crossing party lines to vote for censure

0 House members have ever been censured twice — H.Res. 1085 would make Al Green the first

Censure carries no formal penalty beyond public rebuke — it does not remove a member or strip committee seats

H.Res. 1085 was introduced March 19, 2026 and referred to the Ethics Committee — Speaker Johnson has not committed to a floor vote
