Description
Things got heated in the Senate this morning…so heated that President Carolyn Sandiford had to suspend it. This was after a very personal exchange between UDP Senator Sheena Pitts and PUP Senator Hector Guerra. Pitts described Guerra as “slow.” The remark was not part of her formal contribution, but the microphone picked it up, and it was loud enough for members in the chamber to hear. After Guerra heard it, he responded by calling Pitts’ sense of style “slow,” and the back-and-forth continued from there. Here is how it played out.
