WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Representative Mark Pocan (WI-02), released the following statement on U.S. Representative Derrick Van Orden’s (WI-03) outbursts at last night’s State of the Union.

“Derrick Van Orden continues to embarrass Wisconsin and the United States Congress with his constant unbecoming behavior. He must formally apologize to President Biden for last night’s outburst during the State of the Union. It’s one thing to be a Trump fanatic; it’s another when you’re a member of Congress. This constant pattern of unnecessary outbursts, whether it’s teen pages in the Capitol Rotunda or administration officials at a classified briefing, has many of us worried about his temperament and perhaps his soberness.”
