Rep. Al Green, D-Houston, was escorted out of President Donald Trump's joint address to Congress on Tuesday evening after yelling that Trump had no mandate to cut Medicaid. The congressman stood up at the beginning of the address, shouted that the president had no mandate, and was met with chants from the Republican side to be thrown out. Green continued after being warned by officials. He remained standing and said to the president, “You have no mandate to cut Medicaid.”
The congressman was then escorted out of the chamber. Rep. Green has a history of attention-getting acts and this year has called for Trump to be impeached.
