Ben Nighthorse Campbell (R-Colo.), who is of Native American heritage, had to receive special permission to wear his customary bolo tie on the Senate floor. \u00a0<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr2_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>And former Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), who would sometimes show up to vote in gym clothes, would signal yea or nay from the Republican cloakroom just off the floor to avoid breaching decorum. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Fetterman, who is 6 feet, 8 inches tall, has dressed up in a coat and tie since being sworn into office in January \u2014 such as during President Biden\u2019s 2023 State of the Union address \u2014 but he is often spotted wearing shorts, a dark collared short-sleeved shirt or a hoodie around the Capitol. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Other senators enjoy coming to work in more casual attire. \u00a0<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr3_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>Sen.
