There’s a “unique toxicity” unfolding in the House amid “misogynistic vulgarity” and “protests” in recent weeks. Now, MacFarlaneNews says an unlikely pair of Reps. are working together to ease the tension.
They live a mile apart in Columbus, Ohio. And they shop in the same produce aisle at the same grocery store. U.S. Reps. Mike Carey, a Republican, and Joyce Beatty, a Democrat, often bump into each other at the airport and see each other around the neighborhood. Over glasses of orange juice and ice water in May, they even talked about the importance of being seen together at work, talking and planning. In the heat of one of the most political, toxic and uncivil moments in memory in the U.S.
Rep. Richard Hudson, left, pulls Rep. Mike Rogers back as they talk with Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., and others during the 14th round of voting for speaker on Jan. 6, 2023."We can disagree, but you don't have to be disagreeable," said Carey, as he stood side-by-side with Beatty to speak with CBS News in the Cannon House Office Building.
Carey told CBS News the pair helped bridge gaps, and smooth friction, during the particularly divisive fight over raising the nation's debt ceiling in May. He said,"Joyce obviously was working with her members. And I worked on my side. Then we, as delegation came together and every single one of our members voted for it on the House side."
In response to a question from CBS News about the tenor of House floor proceedings, Speaker Kevin McCarthy accused Democratic colleagues of a lack of civility during a June party-line vote to censure Rep. Adam Schiff, Democrat of California. Democrats shouted"disgrace,""shame" and"McCarthyism" during the censure proceedings, proceedings which Democrats themselves argued lacked in civility and decorum.
"The research is clear — civility and bipartisanship are absolutely necessary for a functioning Congress," said Brad Fitch, president of the Congressional Management Foundation, which helps provide training and services to congressional offices.
