[RANT] Male GOP senator on the "tone" and "decorum" of women senators [WATCH & LISTEN] [View all]

Senator Dayna Polehanki State Senator, Michigan. Running for re-election in ‘22. Former high school English teacher for 19 years.

For the past few weeks, a male GOP senator has taken it upon himself to step up to the mic & tell women senators
@MalloryMcMorrow, @SenErikaGeiss, @rosemarybayer, and @SenatorSantana
what's wrong with the "tone" and "decorum" of their floor speeches.

I had enough.
