- Freshman House Republican Rep. Cory Mills sent inert grenades to all of his fellow House members.
- Mills, a member of the armed services and foreign affairs committees, stamped the grenades with a GOP elephant.
- The Florida representative included this note: “It is my pleasure to give you a 40mm grenade, made for a Mk19 grenade launcher. They are manufactured in the Sunshine State and first developed in the Vietnam war. Let’s come together and get to work on behalf of our constituents.”
