Five days after a now-Covid positive Rudy Giuliani farted and spat his way through a Michigan House hearing full of maskless Republicans, Speaker Lee Chatfield is canceling voting and attendance at Tuesday's session.

Chatfield, R-Levering, released the following statement, as reported by The Detroit News:

"Multiple representatives have requested time to receive results from recent COVID-19 tests before returning to session, out of an abundance of caution. ... Additionally, we have several representatives who need to miss House session for non-COVID reasons. ...

Giuliani was hospitalized with the illness Sunday in Washington, D.C. Officials have not said when he initially tested positive.
