Chicago Congressman violates House decorum. House what?

Chicago Congressman Bobby Rush gave a speech on the US House floor today. It was moving message about the murdered teenager Trayvon Martin. As he neared the end of his talk, he pulled a hoodie over his head and put on a pair of shades.
“A hoodie doesn’t make you a hoodlum,” said the Chicago Congressman.
To the presiding officer of the House, this was a violation of House decorum and the sergeant of arms was called to remove Congressman Rush from the well of the House.
Here’s the video:
