Looking presentable is a priority no? I mean they're not dressed like British barristers, but I also think showing up to a legislature in a hoodie and shorts is trashy
You think it looks trashy, I think it looks comfortable. It's not a dirty or greasy hoodie, just casual. I'd rather a lawmaker be comfortable and undistracted than worried about their appearance.
You're ok with it till they start showing up in Maga t shirts.
I'd be happy with that actually, why would that be a problem? People shouldn't hide that sort of thing, be open about so it can be mocked and ridiculed.
