Montana lawmakers have revived a controversial dress code that drew accusations of sexism when it was first introduced ahead of the 2015 legislative session before being tabled without ever taking effectHELENA, Mont. -- Montana lawmakers have revived a dress code that drew accusations of sexism when it was first introduced ahead of the 2015 legislative session before being tabled without ever taking effect. Lawmakers in the GOP-controlled Legislature were originally scheduled to discuss the dress code Friday afternoon, but the hearing was rescheduled for sometime next week. The proposed code says women “should be sensitive to skirt lengths and necklines" while saying they can wear suits or dresses. Montana lawmakers drew national attention and plenty of mocking when the dress code came up in 2014.
