Censuring Representative Jamaal Bowman.
Summary
House Resolution 912 is a formal measure to censure Representative Jamaal Bowman of New York following an incident in which he triggered a fire alarm in a House office building while votes were being cast. A censure is a public expression of strong disapproval by the House of Representatives that requires the disciplined member to stand in the "well" of the Chamber while the resolution is read aloud. While this action does not remove a member from office, it serves as a permanent entry in the official congressional record and represents one of the most significant forms of public reprimand available to the House.
