Purple and green tutus, boas and sparkles sprinkled the atrium of the Hart Building on Wednesday for what has become one of the most popular events on Capitol Hill: a bipartisan costume dog “pawrade.”
While this year’s celebrated Mardi Gras, the event is typically Halloween-themed — but last fall’s was canceled due to the partial government shutdown.
And for Sen. Thom Tillis, it was important that another be held. Last year’s canceled parade was supposed to be the last for the North Carolina Republican.
