A Republican lawmaker who made a habit of walking around Congress without a mask tested positive for the novel coronavirus Wednesday as he prepared to leave for his native Texas with President Donald Trump.
Louie Gohmert announced his diagnosis a day after attending a major hearing featuring testimony from Attorney General Bill Barr, with whom he was seen walking and chatting at a close distance while neither wore a mask.
The news angered House Democrats and prompted Speaker Nancy Pelosi to order the wearing of masks on the chamber floor – with punishment of removal for anyone disobeying.
