Carries a three year prison sentence and could also be considered disorderly conduct or other crimes if done maliciously.
So let's review! Democrats did not want to vote on a bill, but all of their legal delay tactics were spent. They were getting ready to return to session where the GOP was going to call for a vote, and then we see Congressman Bowman pulling the fire alarm and setting off an evacuation from the building, thus providing the Democrats with another delay.
At first Bowman denies that he pulled the alarm. But once the tape confirms that he did it he flows through two different excuses. First he claimed basic Biden level confusion as he was heading back to vote, and next offering that he thought that the fire alarm would open up the doors behind him (which were technically emergency exits that nobody uses) so he could leave the building on his way back to the chamber.
Now Bowman is not only a congressman, but a former school principal. Pretty sure he understood exactly what a fire alarm was and what it would do. But this it the classic "Hillary Clinton excuse" where she demand being so stupid as to believe that the red classified markings where just letters representing the number of a series of emails that just happened to be missing parts A and B over and over and over again. So stupid to no understand basic classifications or how a fire alarm works, but a strong part of Democrat political leadership!
